This does not taste how it looks. Much tamer than what you’d expect from yeasty slugs swimming around unsupervised in a haze. Silvery green almondy notes and candied banana Runtz (remember those?). Also lemon, green apple. Strong acid but far from vinegar. Powerfully potent at 13.5%. — 5 years ago

Purchased at the Grocery Outlet for $5.99.
That said, when we opened it yesterday it was totally not-descript. I wasn't even going to post it. Now, I am flabbergasted. We wasted it!
👃 lots of plummy raisins and caramel. So much fruit, it reminded me of a fruit compote.
👅 Pleasant leathery tannins, dry, subtly astringent. I never thought I'd b say "pleasant" and "leathery" in the same sentence.

Högg den på tillfälliga hyllan på hansa. Extremt prisvärd! Rosig, bärig, kakao, bastu. Riktig len men ändå dröjande i flabben. Tanniner. — 6 years ago
Dark fruit and some slight licorice notes. Oak and vanilla with hints of leather. Finishes slightly with cocoa nibs — 7 years ago
High-pitched notes of honey and passion fruit on the nose. Moderately sweet with pin-sized bubbles. Really should be partnered with a dessert, but works on its own. — 8 years ago

Celebrated the day with the day off and hibachi for dinner with the family. This wine is very tannic but yet very fruit forward as well. 🥳 — 3 years ago
