== Description ==

3 Fonteinen/Lambic.Info Single Barrel Amontillado Lambic is a lambic aged in a single Amontillado sherry barrel and bottled in ~~75cl bottles~~. It is unblended and was bottled still. Given that there was a small amount of residual sugar remaining at bottling, it may develop a slight carbonation over time. The bottle is a vintage Burgundy style wine bottle called ''La Baronne'' and the corks used were DIAM30 rated for 30 years of stability. The bottles were finished with a wax seal.

During the 2018-~~2019~~ season, the idea for a single barrel selection was presented as a gift from 3 Fonteinen to us to celebrate the 5th anniversary of the Lambic.Info project and community occurring in 2020. We happily accepted and suggested that all proceeds be donated to a local Belgian charity.

On April 2, 2019, the Lambic.Info team gathered at the Lambik-O-Droom to choose and bottle the lambic directly from the barrel alongside the 3 Fonteinen team. The lambic was chosen from among three 435~~-liter~~ Amontillado sherry barrels that had been deemed ready for use. The lambic selected was brewed by 3 Fonteinen on November 11, 2017, and was the 65th brew of that season.

After sitting down with the team at 3 Fonteinen, we decided that we would donate all of the proceeds from the on-site sale of this bottle, as well as the on-site sale of [[3_Fonteinen_Speling_van_het_Lot_X.ix_-_Druif_-_Gewürztraminer|Speling van het Lot X.ix - Druif - Gewürztraminer]], to the [https://www.kinderkankerfonds.be/home/ ''Kinderkankerfonds''] organization ~~which is~~ a children's cancer fund based in Belgium ~~helping Belgian~~ families ~~who are~~ experiencing childhood cancer.

This charity was dear to Armand’s heart and meaningful to everyone involved at the brewery and the Lambic.Info project.

Though originally planned for a spring 2020 release, the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent shutdowns allowed for an opportunity for extended aging. Beginning on July 2, 2021, a total of 400 bottles were made available for sale at the Lambik-O-Droom for €35, for drink-in only.
