March 5, 2016 - Gourmetklubbens tjugonionde middag hos P+A (Tema: Fisk) (Södermalm,, Stockholm): Nose showing burnt caramell and palate has a lovely nuttiness and also some burnt caramell. Long acidic finish that is a fresh balance to the sweetness. Very nice.

October 16, 2015 - Great intensity, rather spicy, and the 150g/l residual sugar is quite well integrated. Very good but does not leave a very lasting impression.

August 6, 2015 - The setting was great; reading a (to me) new Burgess novel and listening to the Goldberg Variations with the sunset over the sea. The wine was good: a fine golden hue with a hint of light sea-green running through it; dragonfruit, wheatgrass, lavender honey, and an elusive core of sweaty orange skin; it's a shame the acidity is too dominant - the palate is a bit plain with cutting acidity overwhelming the (somewhat underwhelming) raisiny sweetness. Unbalanced and a bit short. Would be lovely with savoury food and went well with the lightly smoked Luques olives. Still, I can't help feeling it's a bit of a poor effort...

October 25, 2014 - On the nose honey roasted hazelnuts, nettle and a rusty nail. The flavor contains cherries, rhubarb and apricot in a sweet-sour compote. Kind of an sweet bitter end.

October 11, 2014 - Doften är söt (surprise!) med florala drag, ungefär som när man knipsar av ett pelargonblad. Massor med aprikoser och mandariner, men också en svag ton av kräftspad som stör. I munnen naturligtvis sött, men också mogna röda äpplen och apelsin. Syran gör att det inte känns sliskigt. Om det inte vore för det där kräftspadet....
