When all I have is pictures of the vines going to sleep I have to find something else to spend my time on.
Like this Crichët Pajé Barbaresco 2001 from Luca Roagna.
This is a wine that give people a reason to dedicate theire lifes to Wine...
Had it with good company in booth people and food as a late B-day dinner.

 
Later on we had another fantastic Piedemont producer, Bruno Giacosa and his Barbera d'Alba from 2010. This was like a premier dessert, it had such a extreme smell of rubarb pie!! Sweet and acidic rubarb with butter dough, really nice...

Autumn is here.
The vine's have shown som real strenght since the end of may and we hope they can take that with them during the winter.
Next up will be to cut them and cover them up for protection.

I'm about to show the latest pictures taken from our vinyard in early to mid september. As this started as aen extreme project with a small amount of knowledge about the abillity for the vine to survive, but a great amount of passion for the concept we are truly amazed of what's happend. Talking to other people in Sweden having reel problems with the climat, we have been blessed, so far.
 
 
 
To see them develop into yhis in three and a'half monts is a fantastic feeling. Yes it's a long way to go before we can start talking about harvest, but to see them getting there strength like this in our climat gives alot of motivation and hope for them to surive for next year. Even though I know that spring frost will be more dangerous then a stabil cold winter, the winters we had the last couple of years is making me a bit nervous.
 
 
Next year my focus will be around the vines in planting flowers and trees, so taht we can build up a stabil enviorment that atracts the right sort of animals, insects and life to our vinyard.
 
Last but not least, want to thank Lennart for taking some beautiful pictures with one special picture.
