Description
We want to make wine for Nordic cuisine.
Fruit wine - well worth noting!
Although we can grow Rondo, Solaris and other grapes in Denmark, it will be difficult for us to compete with Germany and France when the quality and economy must match.
This is not the case with fruit wine.
Because we grow some of the world's best fruit in Denmark. The fluctuating temperatures during the growing season and not least between day and night, because the fruit gives a high acid content.
And the acid is just the most interesting thing with a winemaker's glasses.
These are fruity wines with lots of acid and fine fruit in the nose and taste.
Ideal companions for Nordic cuisine.

Poured from 375mL bottle (2016 vintage; lot 2016-1-2-37). Hazy medium brown with no head and a bit of sediment. Apple, booze from the eau-de-vie, dark sugars. A little bit harsh, but still tasty.

375mL bottle. Pours murky brown. Aroma has a ton of ripe apples, skins, fresh grass, brown sugar. Flavour has a ton of ripe apples up front, brown sugar. Like an apple crisp; excellent.

Murky sort of light brown. This has a mellow brown sugar character, decent apple. On the palate, quite a bit of alcohol, sticky sugars. Tastes good, not necessarily refined.

375mL bottle, pours a deep dark amber, almost no head. Aroma has plenty of apple brandy, plenty of booze, and a bit of perfumey notes. Flavour is extremely intense, with plenty of apple brandy, deep red apple liqueur, a touch of floral notes, toffee, and brown sugars. Lots of apple brandy, booze, and sugars. Real nice blend. It's boozy but it works; cohesive fortified, brandy apple cider. Tasty.

Bottle. Yellowish golden colour, small white head. Aroma is green apples, some herbal and lemongrassy tones. Flavour is green apples, some tart wood and a bit tartish apples too. Quite ok. Refreshing, but more of a sipper than a thirst quencher.
