  April 30, 2023 - 90 minute decant. Medium bodied with medium- acidity and tannins. Cedar and leather predominate on the nose and palate, underpinned by dark fruit. Tart, medium finish. Third bottle of three that were gifted. All three were marred by cork that immediately crumbled to bits and pieces and required near-surgery to remove and filtration afterwards. While the wine was pleasant enough, food friendly and a lists at a good PQR, the cork issue alone would deter me from buying any on my own.

  March 11, 2023 - Rubinrød helt klar farge. Relativ mørk.
  
  Duften av eik kommer ut av glasset og er det første som møter deg når du tar nesa ned mot glasset. Bak eiken er det søte, godt modne mørke bær.
  
  Mørke bør dominerer også på smak. Kraftig. Mye eik også på smak. Fortsatt litt tanniner. Sitter relativt lenge igjen i munnen.
  
  God, men litt mye eik.

  February 9, 2023 - Burnished light magenta. Spice, cedar, and burnt cherry nose. Light to medium bodied, tart cranberries, aged cherries, white pepper, woody tannins, good acid, and a tart, medium length finish. Got better the longer it was open.
