Red
2007 Baron de Ley Rioja Finca Monasterio Spain, La Rioja, Rioja
91 points
An aged classic from the tax-free shelves on Norwegian airports. Dark red. Nose with spices, eucalyptus and dark berries. Classic for a quality wine from Rioja. Palate of blackcurrant syrup and dark fruit. Very nice for tapas!
White
2011 Maison Dampt Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos France, Burgundy, Chablis, Chablis Grand Cru
82 points
Light pale. Nose with gooseberries. Palate with grapefruit and some minerals. No big wine. Dull and bland. Suspects a weak bottle.
White
2015 Domaine Delaporte Sancerre France, Loire Valley, Upper Loire, Sancerre
85 points
Clear light yellow. Nose with tropical fruits and hints of butter. Round palate with tropical tones and some minerals. The end of the tastingcurve is bad. Medium plus length.
Red
2007 Ruffino Chianti Classico Riserva Ducale Oro Italy, Tuscany, Chianti, Chianti Classico DOCG
87 points
Dark red, no signs of aging. Nose with cherries, spice and licorice. The palate has much of the same and is also rich in tannins and alcohol. The wine has already been kept for quite a few years, but will last for a very long time still.
Red
2012 Dinastía Vivanco Rioja Colección Vivanco Parcelas de Mazuelo Spain, La Rioja, La Rioja Alta, Rioja
91 points
1516 bottles made of this wine. Very complex nose with Radar mosquito reppelent coil, steel and metal, dark berries, leather as well as hints of liquorice. The palate has a lot of spice but besides this the wine feels flat and without any special character. With some time cherry tones appear!
White - Sparkling
N.V. Lanson Champagne Brut Black Label France, Champagne
88 points
Degorged Nov 16. Light golden yellow. Nose with some spices and yellow ripe apples. Large and full mousse and a pleasant effervescence. Overweight of acid. Acidic apples and hung meat. Medium minus length.
Red
2010 G.D. Vajra Barolo Albe Italy, Piedmont, Langhe, Barolo
88 points
Nose with rose petals and dark fruit. Significant cherries on the palate. The alcohol is evident in the background. Almost two years since the last bottle. No special development to track.
