Nose shows a bit of funk, blueberry, but palate is fleshy with excellent structure, drying dusty tannins on the finish. Black and blue fruits, plum. Very nice wine. Green vein of stem contact runs through the middle adding complexity & structure

The nose showed tart red and blue fruits with herbal hints and dusty earth. On the palate, I found soft textures which gave away to tart blackberry, crushed flowers and minerals. It finished on a hint of citrus and lingering blackberry with a hint of bitterness.

The vintage makes itself known in this year's Munfrina bottling, with acids that aren't quite able to give this the spark it needs, thus the fruits are somewhat muddled; the finish is medium and offers a touch of savory almond. Some soil notes emerge after a few minutes in the glass, but it still falls short on the interest factor. From ~ 20yr old vines.
PnP, served non-blind.

Lite stall, mycket körsbär, blåbär. Lite kryddig. Bra syra och sansade tanniner. Gott på restaurang Matboden.

No wood, just steel. Dark purple red. Grapes, some alcohol, simple and clean. Slightly metallic finish.
