  260 NOK. Lett reduktiv, rett etter åpning. Nydelig fruktsødme elegant, lett fast tre i ettersmaken. noe svakere enn 2013. 1 dag i flaske: Fin i dag mot tyttebær elegant.

  I don't know what to make of this wine. I'm like the overall composition of the wine but there are some elements that prevent me from otherwise enjoying it - namely, the sweaty funk and the oxidative nose. Normally I can handle a fair amount of these things, but I found a little too much here. High-toned red fruits of cherry and tart strawberry, leather, vinegar, and chalk dust on the nose. High acidity on the nose, medium tannin; actually quite refreshing, yet with a hint of savoriness.

  Tunn ljusröd färg
  
  Sura bär, funkig, röda vinbär, vanilj
  
  Sötfruktig som bara den. Helt okej syra. Slankt som drar åt safthållet.
  
  Inte riktigt min grej det här. Lite för mycket omogen frukt och sura bär.

  Clear, pale intensity, ruby color.
  
  Youthful and initially a bit funky nose. Medium intensity with aromas of dark cherry, fresh strawberry, rose petal, wet tobacco, basil and animals. Slight vanilla and coffee.
  
  Bone-dry, medium bodied with medium tannins and high acidity. Medium intensity with juicy red berries, spice box, basil and a hint of vanilla. Medium finish.
  
  Juicy and easy-drinking but lacks complexity and personality. A bit too young and primary today and will improve with aging but to be honest I was expecting more from this address.
