January 14, 2022 - Quite well developed on the nose, with tobacco and game alongside ripe red and black fruits. But it falls down on the palate where it lacks intensity, has some unpleasant green notes, and a short(ish) finish.

October 4, 2021 - Deep ruby. Med+ intensity. Black cherry, plum, dried herbs. Smoke, cloves. Meaty.
Med+ acidity. Med+ grippy, chalky tannin. Med alcohol. Med+ body. Fresher on the palate, less secondary and tertiary. Also weaker on the palate with less texture.
VG: complexity from 3 cat and balance but lacking some intensity and length.

March 12, 2021 - A bit "funny" bouquet - straw? citrus in taste? Would never have guessed this as Syrah...
Too expensive for 189 Dkr - do not buy again.
For at bevare så meget af frugten som muligt har vinen ikke lagret på egefade. En komplet og typisk vin frembragt af Syrah-druen med en intens mørk farve samt med en bæragtig bouquet af hindbær og violer.
