  Very bold on the nose with dark dried fruit. On the palette much the same with blackberry, jammy preserves. Decanted for about 90 minutes and it took another 30-45 to open up, last half glass this wine softened quite a bit, very smooth. Recommend a good 3 hour plus decante and you will be rewarded. Looking to buy more.

  Eðalklúbbur, haustsmakk #2 2021 (Hlíðarás 10): Mjög ljós litur. Fyrsti þefur gaf klóak (og það var ekki bara ég sem fann þetta). Það var líka talað um brettonomycus. Síðan kom ávöxtur, jarðarber og í lokin tóbak.
  Þegar var smakkað á víninu kom í ljós að vínið var mjög kryddað á bragðið. Pipar aðallega en einnig bökunarkrydd. Þarna voru líka grænir tónar, paprika. Mikill ferskleiki. Batnaði í glasi. Fróðlegt að vita hvernig þetta smakkast daginn eftir því það var alveg eitthvað við þetta vín þó það væri kannski svolítið fráhrindandi í byrjun. Það óx í glasi allan tímann.

  Decanted 90 min. Dark red fruit. Chocolate. Woody. Somewhat chewy finish, minerals. A bit flat.
  Update: this gained body after 5 hours in the decanter, so I think there is room for further development.
