Dark blood red color; oakpowered nose with black- and redcurrants, green bell pepper, and hints of strawberry and cedar swamp; in the mouth the structure is made up of fairly high alcohol and acid levels and robust tannins, the oak is prominent, the finish solid, and I am left with a satisfying impression of a well-balanced wine - that works great with pizza.

Doft: Bärkompott, kåda, en fet nästan animalisk ton samt en frisk syrlig lingonaktig känsla! Smak: till en början söta portvinstoner sedan friska bär, grön paprika och tomatblad. En påtaglig strävhet som nog behöver några år för att tämjas. Har en flaska till på ingång som ska få vila några år till...
Halvflaska!

It's very heavy. Sturdy tannins and dark red fruit. Still with air and temperature it kept closed.
