2014 Auguste Clape Cornas Decanted two hours prior to tasting. The nose is initially dominated by loads of animal and leathery scents, but settles in at a more balanced level after additional air. On the palate, fruit is leaning towards the tart spectrum, with slightly unripe plums, grapes, and...

2014 Penfolds St. Henri A rich array of fruit, including raspberries, blueberries, and cherries is at the forefront of this 2014 St. Henri. The dense almost liqueur-like fruit is complemented by sweet licorice, peppermint, and brownies. It finishes on dark notes of espresso and bitter...

2010 Pierre Gonon St. Joseph Decanted one hour prior to tasting. In retrospect I realize that is an absolute minimum: with more air this grew quite a bit over the evening. In the fruit department you will find grapefruits, blueberries, black cherries, and sweet raspberry jam. I also took notes...

Ingen panik alls!

2008 Château Léoville Las Cases Four hours of air prior to tasting. Black and red currants, stone, earth, freshly ground coffee beans, milk chocolate, salty licorice, fudge. Fresh, vibrant acid, moderate tannins. Elegance before power, and thankfully no sign of alcohol. The fruit is soft and...

Perfekt, tack!

Här hettar det till! :D Insåg att jag har en flaska 2009 Joh. Jos. Prüm Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Auslese i källaren. Dricker sällan/aldrig Auslese. Ni som vet, när dricks den bäst? Den kostade 379 kr på Systembolaget för sju år sen.

Vill du lagra vin eller stanna tiden? ;) Jag hade nog varit ganska nöjd med detta. Låter inte så dumt.

2015 Sine Qua Non Syrah Trouver l'Arene Two hours of air prior to tasting, should have given it at least two more. Raspberry jam, peppermint, espresso, salty licorice, charcoal, earth, a hint of ginger. Unfortunately very hot (15.5%), makes it come across as unbalanced. I doubt it has enough...

2014 Keller Abtserde GG Two hours of air prior to tasting. Lemon, grapefruit, pineapple, a whiff of passion fruit. Mint, tobacco, and some spicy notes. Fully packed with stone and salinity. Very clean and pure, like a clear high note. A distinct mouthwatering acidity marks the end of the long...

2011 Domaine Auguste Clape Cornas Decanted two hours prior to tasting. Overripe strawberries, tart cherries, bitter grapefruit, salty licorice, tarragon, leather, wood. Ridiculous amount of stone, in particular on the palate. Lots of animal and gamey notes but nothing unclean at all. Fruit is a...

Det är inte som att den är på väg att falla isär eller så, har säkert flera år kvar på den nivån den är nu. Men kan tänka mig att den långsamt kommer kännas tröttare för varje år som går.

2014 Dönnhoff Dellchen GG Thick, deep tropical fruit, almost liqueur- or marmalade-like, with pineapple, passion fruit, banana, orange, and coconut. Dry with a sweet feeling. Some green elements like stinging nettle, herbs, and cucumber contrast all the sweet fruit in a good way. Finish could...

2013 Bartolo Mascarello Barolo First of six bottles. Decanted three hours before tasting. Cherries, strawberries, oranges, flowers, brown sugar, peppermint, a hint of coca cola. Fully packed with intense sweet fruit. The fruit is held up by distinct tannins and acid, but the structure is not...

🤣😂🤣😂🤣

2012 Domaine Vincent Paris Cornas Granit 60 Cherries, blueberries, lime. Sweet licorice, cinnamon, juniper, violets, stone and earth. This has developed and softened, but still very deep and precise. Fruit is cool, and there is a kind of sweet and sour sauce thing going on. For fans of Cornas...

– I'm ninety eight points on that.

– Du vet ju att jag alltid gillat vin, eller hur? – Ja, såklart. Hurså? – Nu har det kommit till en punkt där jag bestämt mig för att sluta köpa vin. Det har blivit för mycket. Alldeles för mycket. Inte långsiktigt hållbart alls. – Sluta helt tvärt? Sådär bara? – Ja, totalt köpstopp. –...

Mitt köpstopp har följts strikt! Inte en enda flaska sedan 2023-05-02.
