--Sample, thanks oh6gdx! -- Almost clear pale orange colour, small head. Aroma of intensely wooded white wine. Mid dry with light to medium body and well rounded mouthfeel. Some pepper and nectarine. Lots of Sauvignon Blanc and even more oak. Taninic mid bitter finish with some wamth. Intense but harmonious and really tasty.

Bottled (from Alko web). Slightly hazy orangeish golden colour with a small foamy white head. Aroma is nectary, some tart wooden and mild grape to it. Flavour is quite similar to the aroma, but also nicely complex. Smooth and nicely refreshing and a somewhat dry palate. Almost a slight raisin sweetness in the aftertaste, aging? Still very nice close to when BBE is mentioned (12/2023).
