Warning The vintage is very important for quality, but often sloppy handled by wine suppliers and not properly checked by Systembolaget. Check up carefully by yourself, that you get the particular vintage that is below recommended. Subsequent vintages might be as good but there are never such guaranties.
2007-12-21 A lovely Aussie Chardonnay for only SEK 98 is the 2003 Katnook Founder's Block Chardonnay (nr 82880) at the Systembolaget ordering list. Bottle content for SEK 200.
2007-12-09 A very special thing is the 2004 Pintia (nr 97773) from Toro in Spain. Really a bargain for SEK 300, given a Parker 95 point.
2007-12-09 I have been searching long time for the newly improved Domaine William Fevre Chablis without result, and was astonished by finding 2004 Chablis Grand Cru Bougros (nr 97299) in Systembolaget's ordinary list. The catch is that Parker has assigned 95 points to Bougros Cote Bouguerots, which is probably a slightly better sub part of the Bourgros vineyard. Yet this wine cost a reasonable SEK 349. Even more astonished I was when finding the 2004 Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos (nr 81921) at the ordering list selling for SEK 489. Also here is a catch, this wine is not labelled "Domaine William Fevre" which means that the quality may be slightly less than a 96 Paker points "Domaine" bottling. I have tasted this wine and and think this is nevertheless a bargain price.
2007-05-19 Looking for a bargain white dry wine ? Systembolagest ordering list now include 2002 Ch de Fesles Chenin Sec "La Chapelle" (nr 83221), Anjou, Loire, Frankrike at the modest price SEK 159.
2007-05-19 The full-bodied Californian 2003 Syrah White Hawk is now for sale at Bergman vinimport at DKK 264. If you visit his web, do also take a look on the very priceworthy wines from other areas.
2006-12-18 The boutique wine 2004 Kungsgaard Chardonnay is now available at Systembolaget's ordering range at SEK 774. The price surely deplete the wallet, but there is nothing cheaper to find if hunting nothing less than white Burgundy equivalents.
2006-11-29 Now available at Systembolaget is the 2001 Barolo Bric dël Fiasc (nr 98349) at SEK 523. To be a Barolo, this wine has a seldom seen fruit balance, clearly deserving the 95 points from Parker.
2006-11-29 The rare Henschke boutique producer now have some remarkable offerings at Systembolaget. Their "non-existant" 1999 Hill of Grace are just sold out at SEK 2221, but there still remain single bottles of 2002 Henschke Mount Edelstone Shiraz (nr 97335) at SEK 674. Larger stock of 2002 Henschke Keyneton Estate Euphonium Shiraz (nr 97334) at SEK 286 is reasonable for their 93 Parker points.
2006-11-29 A bunch of top notch Torbreck wines are now available at System-bolaget, most notably 2004 Torbreck Descendant (nr 97326) at SEK 770 and 2003 Torbreck Runrig (nr 97330) at SEK 1447. Expensive, yes, but they are assigned 98 and 99 Parker points. Other lesser price-worthy but profound bottles are also availble.

2004 2001 Midnight Oil 2001 (nr 88260) California, Sine Qua Non, 799 SEK. Syrah from Central Coast, California. Robert Parker 96 points, but I think even better. On internet this might fetch 2000 SEK.

2004 2002 Cline Ancient Vines Mourvèdre (nr 22284) Contra Costa County, Cline Cellars, at 132 SEK. Fabulous bargain for this price, it is worth the double.  The vintage has changed to 2003, which I haven't tasted.
