From vineyard to bottle

The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.

Sweden, the northern land of Vikings, vast forests, and the midnight sun, isn't exactly the first country you think of when it comes to wine production. However, tucked away in the Skåne wine region lies a gem of a winery that continues to amaze the world: Askesang White. The story of Askesang begins with a passionate wine lover, Lars Johansson, who decided to defy traditional wine country and create something special in his own backyard. While traveling through the French wine regions, he fell in love with winemaking and dreamed of producing a unique wine that would capture the essence of Sweden. Back in Skåne, with its rich soil and unique climate, his adventure began. Askesang White is a unique blend, a fusion of Solaris and Souvignier Gris grapes. These grapes, though relatively unknown in traditional wine circles, are perfectly adapted to the Swedish climate and give Askesang its distinctive flavor.

Upon opening a bottle of Askesang White, you're immediately greeted by a refreshing nose of green apple and citrus, with subtle hints of white blossom and honey. A sip of this wine is like a stroll through a Swedish forest in early summer; fresh, vibrant, yet surprisingly warm and inviting. The Solaris grape brings a sunny brightness, while the Souvignier Gris adds depth and complexity.

Skåne, with its rolling hills and picturesque landscapes, is the ideal backdrop for this winery. The cool climate allows for slow ripening of the grapes, resulting in a wine with refined flavors and excellent balance. In a world where wine lovers are constantly searching for the next great discovery, Askesang White stands proud as a showcase of innovation and passion. It's an invitation to venture off the beaten path and savor the surprising flavors Sweden has to offer. So the next time you're thinking about tasting a unique white wine, let yourself be transported to the Swedish fields and forests with a glass of Askesang White. Skål!
