That a Swedish wine was served with the main course at the Nobel dinner of 2025 is something of a sensation. It is great that they take the opportunity to show that wine is actually made in Sweden, something many foreigners do not think is possible.
Immelen 2022 comes from Kullabergs Vingård in Skåne, in the south of Sweden, and is a white wine (unusual at the Nobel dinner, where the main course wine is usually red), made from 87% solaris with a dash of souvignier gris and muscaris. All grapes are PIWI grapes, i.e., hybrids that can withstand the Swedish climate and have good resistance to fungal diseases, reducing the need for spraying in the vineyard.
Kullaberg has been a dynamic winery since it started in 2006. It continues to invest. An additional 4 hectares will be planted. The newly built, super-modern winery has a capacity for 100,000 bottles.
Earlier this year, Helena Lindberg joined the team as a winemaker. She will work with the current winemaker Nicola D’Agostini. Helena has extensive experience from Italy, where she worked for many years as a winemaker at Tenuta di Biserno in Tuscany.
