November 18, 2023 - Winferno in Umeå (Stöcksjö, Umeå): No votes for this wine - says more about the competition than this bottle.
Light yellow.
Really PHAT Chard that in the company came across as relatively simple.
I was two years off with my guess.
I'd recommend to hold in order to make this wine better match its pricetag when you plop it... -

August 20, 2023 - Similar to my last note, this continues to fade. It seems a bit soft and less to my taste than it was a year ago. I may need to give it another try, just listened to a podcast talking about how the trend toward acidity is making all wines the same. I think my palate is being trained that I need an acidic white but maybe I can learn something by tasting this with a more open mind (apologies for the stream of consciousness in a tasting note…)

April 26, 2023 - This is fading a bit for me. Still very nice and drinkable but not as special as it could be.
Edit: much better as it warms up and gets about an hour of air. Previously there was a hollowness midway through, now it is much more intense and longer finish -

April 28, 2022 - Nez avec du miel et des fruits blancs, assez classique comme la bouche équilibrée, fine et fort savoureuse. 90-91
