The rosé “Sommartirder” is done from 100% Syrah. Lovely on its own and very nice with fish, chicken and salads. Fruity and fresh as a summer day with nice notes of citrus, line and blackcurrant. The white wine “Sommartider” is a delicious combination of gros manseng and souvignon blanc grapes.

Together with one of France’s most well-known wine producers, François Lurton, he has created two new wines of southern French grapes. Nothing could be more longed for after an eternity long winter than the promise of brighter and warmer times! Per Gessle himself is the one behind the summery boxes’ design which make you think of the lovely, lasy summer days. Now it’s time for two delicious French sequels in the “The Per Gessle Selection”, the “Sommartider” wine boxes, a white and a rosé, which premiere to the world today, April 8th. Per Gessle is used to successes and since both critics and the audience loved his Italian wines “Furet” and “Kurt and Lisa” he was more than pleasedwith his debut in the wine business. The Wine Agency, the company distributing the wines, sent out this press release yesterday: Two new wines have been added to the Per Gessle Selection.

Here he can combine his creativity with his interest in fine wines. This is an inspiring project for Per Gessle. The two boxed Sommartider wines are really worth their price (199 SEK/box).Ĭonsidering Gessle’s solid interest in wine probably many think that boxed wines are not his mission in life. It is therefore an invigorating surprise that Per Gessle has chosen the opposite. The vast majority of celebrity wines is of poorer quality than what you pay for.

I don’t like boxed wines and absolutely don’t like “celebrity wines” which tend to be praised for half shitty quality. All wine journalists seem to be extremely positive about these 2 new items in The Per Gessle Selection.Ī wine that goddamn tastes exactly as it is called / sounds.
