  August 10, 2014 - Denne flasken åpenbarte seg under innflytting i ny vinkjeller og det ble for fristende til Hellstrøms grytestekte kylling med 40 smørkokte hvitløksfedd og nypoteter. Flott mørk frukt, pen jordlig touch, Mercureymineralitet. En touch sekundær frukt, mye skogsbunn, men samtidig bringebær og markjordbær. Noe søtlig i frukten. Strukturert med masse grep. 90p

  May 11, 2009 - visually beautiful, ruby red, the nose really hits its stride at 2 hours open, cherry, woods, raspberry, fills the palate with bright, fresh red berry, velvety body, good weight, minerals and soil echo on the finish, leaves a clean impression, good structure for aging, decant for optimal pleasure, really nice for me

  March 31, 2009 - Whilst clean and reasonably polished you feel that this wine is built on ‘old school’ sensibilities where the wine is but a conduit between the drinker and the microclimate from which the wine was born. Lovely, ethereal red berries (think raspberries and strawberries) gain in sweetness and intensity as the bottles contents disappear (rather rapidly I might add). There are some lovely fresh earth notes and the palate is compact with mouth-watering acidity and sneaky persistence. Chilled just under room temperature it was a revelation with the fresh flavours at Noosa’s Ricky’s restaurant on a muggy autumn day.
