  Medium reddish ruby in color. Full, forward & attractive nose of ripe fruit aromas of cherries, strawberries & plums with overtones of earthy/dusty & rose petal notes, herbs, spices, minerals, tobacco, mint, some tar notes & a hint of cedar in the background. Medium-deep bodied with a good concentration of balanced & smooth textured, ripe fruit flavors of cherries, tart cranberries & strawberries with herbs, spices, minerals & a hint of vanilla/oak. Lingering finish. Drinks quite well at present with decanting & airing but should develop further with additional aging.

  Har det gått in i tunneln?

  Vänta tre år minst.

  Another ripe wine with delicious dark berry and cherry fruits. There some sweet tobacco and mint too. It is flesh and voluminous and underpinned by chewy tannins. The finish is stony and fresh. Plenty of depth here upon which to age further.

  Coravin. Nice but questionable value for money.
