Wine 1987

A special wine from 1987 for the memorable celebration

When an important event is approaching, a 1987 wine can create the perfect atmosphere and tie past and present together. These decades-old vintage wines have undergone a long and undisturbed maturation process, which has shaped a character and a flavor harmony that only emerges with time.

As part of Scandinavia's largest selection of historic wines, this collection contains bottles that match exactly the year you want to mark, e.g. one wine from 1997. This makes it an engaging and personal experience to select exactly the bottle from a certain area or a recognized producer that will please the recipient the most.

A personal gift with depth

Giving a bottle from a specific year shows a sincere interest in the recipient's life story. Rather than just a traditional gift, you give a liquid symbol of the many experiences and events that have taken place ever since the wine was bottled in its time.

This type of gift naturally invites presence and pleasant conversations. When you open and share a wine with so many years of maturation, it creates a quiet occasion for both recipient and guests to reminisce about the past, all while the well-developed and deep flavor nuances are fully enjoyed in the present.

Proper storage for the full experience

In order for maturing wines to retain their high quality and slowly develop their finest aromas over several decades, they require very specific conditions. A constant temperature, stable humidity and perfect protection from direct light are absolutely essential for the development of the contents behind the cork.

All the bottles here have been stored safely under these optimal and carefully controlled conditions. It is an essential prerequisite for older wines, as it guarantees that the contents are fully intact and can give you exactly the experience that the winemaker originally created.

Worth knowing about your wine 1987

With its long maturation history, a wine from 1987 differs markedly from younger vintages when you consider both aroma, taste and visual structure, just as a special wine from 1977 also has its own, complex features. Older and mature wines are naturally more fragile, which is why they deserve special and gentle treatment when both opening and serving to ensure a successful experience.

Below you will find practical advice and the most common characteristics of wines that have reached this great age:

• The color of the red wines will typically have developed a beautiful brick red shade, while the white wines often appear darker and more golden in the glass.
• The fresh fruit flavor will often fade into the background to make way for more complex and deep notes of leather, forest floor or roasted nuts.
• The cork has spent many years in the bottle and may have become porous, so it is important to pull it off with great care and calmness.
• A slight sedimentation is a completely natural part of the wine's long maturation process, and for this reason the bottle should be left upright for a few days before opening.
• These older vintage wines have a delicate balance that rarely tolerates long-term oxygenation in a decanter, and they should therefore be enjoyed relatively soon after opening.
