December 12, 2020 - Good with food (entrecote). Nice fruity wine. Still plenty of acidity left and a bit peppery. Improves with aeration. A bit overpriced at 360 SEK.

July 23, 2018 - Given blind, i would go to French syrah - a meat fest. Not a usual style I choose, but good scores and £16 on sale!
N: Perfumed and a little hot. Ripe blackcurrant, smashed rocks and raspberries. Coffee, nutmeg and baking spice undertone, cedar box, but sooooooo smoked meaty.
P: Full, med+ acid, med grainy tannins, crushed rocks and very pure smashed red berries. Elegant, very savoury smoked meatiness.
F: BBQ meat, coffee and leather.
Wouldn't pay full RRP, but interesting. Lack of balance brought it down. -

March 3, 2018 - Fantastisk doft av mogna körsbär, mineraler, lite ek.
På läppen, härlig balans mellan syra, sötma samt tanniner som gör att det passar till en härlig köttbit. Lång eftersmak.
Smakar mörka bär, ffa körsbär, Lite torkade bär. viss bitterhet som mörk choklad i eftersmaken.
Utmärkt till mat men även utan tilltugg.
