An exercise in refined restraint, this wine captivates with its beautiful precision. The nose opens with a medley of ripe red fruits - raspberries, strawberries, and red plums - interwoven with sweet herbs, a subtle dustiness, and delicate dried mushroom notes. Floral undertones add further complexity.
The palate shows excellent integration, with silky oak seamlessly supporting the fruit. There's a distinctive Nordic berry character that remains delicate rather than overwhelming. The wine shows good concentration and maintains vibrant acidity, creating a perfect tension with the ripe, silky tannins that provide gentle grip. Everything culminates in a persistent, perfumed finish.
A wine that speaks more through elegance than power, delivering complexity without sacrificing finesse.
