5/4/2024 - Mansun Likes this wine: 93 pointsA total banger of a wine! Perfect for summer. Super fruity with notes of raspberry candy, strawberry and red cherries with some creamy notes as well. Some super smooth and fine tannins. And just a tiny bit of residual sugar. Awesome wine! |

2016 Zonin Ripasso della Valpolicella SuperioreCorvina Blend, Corvina more |
5/3/2024 - Mansun wrote: 86 pointsQuite dry for a Ripasso. But still unmistakably a Ripasso. Spicy and concentrated for sure, but I'm surprised by how fresh and vibrant it still feels after eight years. |

2017 Cantina Terre Del Barolo Langhe NebbioloLanghe DOC more |
4/27/2024 - Mansun wrote: 88 pointsRather simple but well made Nebbiolo. Nothing I'll remember forever but paired very good with a creamy congac and beef pasta. Soft tannins, good acidity. Notes of strawberries, cherries, something almost citrusy perhaps blood orange, pepper and some earthy notes. |

2018 Cordella Brunello di MontalcinoSangiovese more |
2/10/2024 - Mansun wrote: 90 pointsOpened and decanted 8 hours before drinking. Very mature and smooth for being a young Brunello. It's an excellent wine, but aging potential might be closer to 8-10 than 20 years . |

NV Anora Group Fleur de Vignoble Prestige BrutCrémant de Bordeaux White Blend more |
1/13/2024 - Mansun wrote: 88 pointsA very nice crémant. Different from your typical northern crémants of Bourgogne and The Loire that you usually find in Sweden. Tropical fruits and citrus with good acidity and just a tiny bit of residual sugar. |

2018 Abbadia Ardenga Brunello di Montalcino Vigna PiaggiaSangiovese more |
1/13/2024 - Mansun Likes this wine: 92 pointsA good Brunello. Red cherries, lingonberry, cedar wood and leather. Still very young, I'll probably wait a few years before opening the next one of this vintage. |

2020 Viu Manent Malbec ReservaColchagua Valley more |
1/12/2024 - Mansun wrote: 84 pointsVery fruity but also very simple Malbec. It's definitely not a bad wine, but I is not very interesting either. |

2012 Maculan BrentinoVeneto IGT Red Bordeaux Blend more |
1/4/2024 - Mansun Likes this wine: 90 pointsA bold and flavourful Bordeaux blend from Veneto. Stating to show signs of maturity but still very fresh and fruity. Meaning now is probably a very good time to drink it. The expected cassis, blackberries and dark cherries are harmonisering very nicely with notes of leather and smoke. A very nice find! |

2021 Château de Sancerre SancerreSauvignon Blanc more |
1/1/2024 - Mansun wrote: 88 pointsNowhere near the the 2020 vintage in my opinion. Sure, I would probably have guessed that it was a French Sauvignon Blanc, but in complexity this is not very much better than a decent table wine. It doesn't mean that this wine is bad. Just that I expected more from it. |

2017 Louis Jadot SantenayPinot Noir more |
12/25/2023 - Mansun wrote: 93 pointsExcellent, very fruity Bourgogne! A perfect exempel of how to use oak in my opinion. Present, but in a subtle well integrated way, instead of being overpowering and in your face. |

2009 Rochet-Bocart Champagne Premier Cru Millésimé Premier Cru VaudemangeChardonnay more |
12/24/2023 - Mansun wrote: 91 pointsVery lovely, and a bit unusual flavors of oranges. Of course there's the expected flavors of yellow and red apples and some light yeasty and toasty notes of crackers and roasted pine nuts. Decent, but not super complex. |

2015 Viña Santa Rita Triple CMaipo Valley Red Blend more |
12/9/2023 - Mansun Likes this wine: 91 pointsVery good CF dominated Bordeaux blend. Fruit notes of cherries, cranberry and lingonberry with some accompanying meaty and smokey notes. Well balanced acidity and perfectly mature! |

2014 Cantina Terlan Lagrein PorphyrAlto Adige - Südtirol more |
11/18/2023 - Mansun Likes this wine: 91 pointsIntense and ripe dark fruit. Some elegant spiciness and some subtle, well integrated oak notes. A well balanced and beautiful wine. |

2021 Drood Winery of Persia Lorkosh The Warrior- AriobarzanesSweden more |
11/17/2023 - Mansun wrote: 87 pointsVery interesting. Light orange in colour. So definitely some skin contact. Which can also be felt on the palate with notes of apple skin and lots of spiciness, as well as mandarin, vanilla, and some buttery notes from malolactic fermentation. Rustic but also modern in some ways. |

NV Domaine des Enfants Côtes Catalanes Le JouetGrenache Blend, Grenache more |
11/3/2023 - Mansun wrote: 85 pointsSpicy with many of the dark red berries and black olive notes you'd expect from this kind of blend. Decent, but lacks some harmony of the spiciness, boldness and acidity. |

2019 Château d'ArcinsHaut-Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend more |
10/28/2023 - Mansun Likes this wine: 88 pointsA decent enough Bordeaux. Somewhat typical Medoc with notes of cassis, cedar wood, vanilla and tobacco smoke. But also some notes of dark cherries, beef tomatoes and a little bit of leather. |

2020 Skepparps Vingård Solaris Grand Prix BrutSkåne more |
10/28/2023 - Mansun wrote: 89 pointsTropical fruit notes along with yellow apples and pears. Almost Greek in style, if tested blind I would probably have guessed athiri or athiri - assyrtiko blend. Swedish sparkling wine impresses once again. |

2018 Zymé Valpolicella RêverieCorvina Blend, Corvina more |
10/27/2023 - Mansun wrote: 85 pointsA bit simple, but good. A bit different, with notes of cranberries, goji berries and other more traditional red berries, such as strawberries and red cherries. A touch of fresh mint leaves and chalky minerals. |
