Ebba
Flädie Vingård has just launched their new Ebba Brut. This is some very fresh bubbles that is the perfect pre drink! Or with some nice Skagen mayby.. It has a light fresh taste, with a touch of fresh elderberry and citrus. (According to me;) Loved it!
Assyrtiko
Greek wines, most people don't think much about them. And many haven't even tasted. Kir-Yianni is the winemaker behind the Assyrtiko, which is a beautiful white from Greece. It goes really well with the Skagen we had the other day. I would recommend it with fish, like a nice piece of salmon. Or a sunny … Fortsätt läsa Assyrtiko

Last night
It was my turn to host the book club, so I had stock up on wine and cheese. We had read a book about Ester Blenda Nordström, one of Sweden's first Female journalists. But she was also an author and explorer!
Jazz au vin
Danyel Couet has a new concept every Thursday at his Bar Etable. Once a week they will have a live jazz band, serve wine from the big wine bottle and some food.
