  April 27, 2019 - Beautiful crimson colour, no visible sediment. N:Seductive red berry smell. Feels like summer, sweet cherries. Newly pressed paper.
  T: Silky mouthfeel, very berry. Soft tannins. For me this is drinking beautifully right now, will drink next some time this summer. Served slightly chilled.

  December 1, 2018 - Unusually large transformation from opening with this wine. When first opened, seemed flat in structure, little tannin and low acidity, stewed cherries and strawberrier. Needed chilling. However somehow air and time open awarded the wine with the acidity and tannins suddenly coming through, and seville orange, thyme and violet entered. In the end, it’s a good wine although it does not sit quite right with me. Reminded me of a mixture of a red wine from Lazio and a nerello mascalese from Etna.

  November 23, 2018 - Light and easily drunk. Sweet berries, oak and nougat. Strawberries. I like this. But do I like enough to go and buy me some more bottles? Some pepper comes out after a while. This should be a beautiful summer wine for those wonderful summer nights. 88-89
  
  But outside my swedish window it's 1 degrees Celsius so I guess I pass. But in six months I will want this again.
  
  Edit: Actually went and bought two more bottles. And I raised the score to 89.
