News @ Vinmonopolet

New wines are coming in July, and here are some of my favorites. Keep in mind some you might have to order online.

Kruger-Rumpf

One new wine from Kruger-Rumpf’s lineup will be available at Vinmonopolet in July. Soon you can find Riesling Münster Kapellenberg priced at 225kr at a Vinmonopol near you! His other wines (pictured below) will also be released with new vintages.

I’ve recently become a fan of Kruger-Rumpf. Since I met him in person in February at a wine fair organized by Moestue, I’ve encountered his wines again and again at other wine events. And although my knowledge of Riesling or wines from Germany in general is quite low, it’s been a lot of fun to learn more this past year.

Riesling Phyllit – Feinherb 169,90kr
Riesling Münster Kapellenberg 225,00kr
Riesling Abtei Rupertsberg 237,90kr

Carillon

New vintages of Cariollon will also be released in July. Fresh & crips chardonnay, perfect for summer!
Carillon Bourgogne Aligote 239,90kr
Cariollon Bourgogne Chardonnay 269,90kr
Carillon Puligny-Montrachet 499,90kr

Adams Wein

Moestue can proudly present a new producer, Adams Wein. The two wines I tried, a Weissburgunder and a Grauburgunder were both dry with medium acidity. My knowledge of wines from Germany, but these two were fresh and easy to drink, and seems perfect on a warm summer day.

White wine mood?

Looking for a good white wine to drink this summer?

White Wine

It’s summer, and white wine is on the menu for many people. Vinmonopolet has many good wines, but here are a few of my favorite ones you can find now. Note: some you may have to order, they might not be at a specific Vinmonpol that you visit. And for non Norwegain readers, I am sure you can find them other places too!

Herzu by Ettore Germano

A light, dry, refreshing riesling that is grown in Piemonte. I am not usually a big fan of riesling because I find them too sweet, but this one is perfect. Truly one of my favorite white wines!

Bourgogne Chardonnay by Matrot

Matrot makes wonderful wines, and what’s even better is that you can find a really good one under 200kr. They are proof that amazing wines do not have to cost a fortune. Truly a fresh, balanced wine.

Bourgogne Chardonnay by Carillon

Another good chardonnay that’s also not very expensive. Carillon produces great white burgundy, and it’s great that we can drink such good wines without breaking the bank!

Macon-Villages by Jean-Marc Boillot

Macon-Village is one of my favorite appellations in burgundy. There are so many good producers that make Macon-Villages, and JM Boillot is no exception.
