Hello all!
Looking for some feedback on a recipe I'm working on for next weekend. I'm going for a dark saison for the winter months. I've made saisons before, but nothing like this before so it may end up being an advantageous experiment.

The plan is to also soak an oak spiral in some red wine and adding it after fermentation dies down and maybe even some dried currants with it.
Not sold on the Barbe Rouge for the hops, but they seem like they would fit with the flavor profile I'm shooting for - especially at such low amounts. I also have access to Ella, Motuere, and Idaho Gem hops. I can also grab just about anything else from the LHBS.
It seems like the FG is a bit on the high side, but I've used C2C before and it usually has a higher that average attenuation, I've just never done the calculations to figure out how much higher. So maybe it will finish lower and dry it out a little more.
Thoughts and feedback very much welcomed!
Thanks!
