Features
Body ? The body is the way a wine feels inside the mouth. Several factors, such as the alcohol content and the presence of tannins, contribute to the feel of the wine.
Freshness ? The freshness of a wine is defined by its level of acidity. Unlike rounded wines, fresh wines are easy to drink, and are more lively. Acidity plays a necessary part in a wine's structure.
Aging ? All wines do not have the same aging potential. Some are supposed to be consumed at a young age while others must be kept for longer periods of time.
Tannins ? Coming from stems, grape pips and their storage barrels, the tannin gives structure to red wines only.
Do you know ?
The oldest written records of aquavit date back to the 1530s, when it was used as a remedy for most health problems. The difference between Danish and Norwegian aquavits comes from the base spirit: gain alcohol in Denmark, potato in Norway. This is THE spirit of the Nordic countries.

AALBORG
Aalborg is the iconic Danish aquavit brand. Launched in 1846, it is now the world's No. 1 aquavit brand.
A national drink, no meal ends without a glass of Aquavit Aalborg. It's linked to Denmark in the same way that Whisky is to Scotland or Cognac to France. Aquavit comes from the Latin 'acqua vitae' (brandy).
