Time for glögg (mulled wine) while we wait for Christmas

Now we are in December - the Christmas season. December 24 is Christmas Eve - the most important day of the year in Sweden. But before we get there we will prepare ourselves for Christmas.
It starts already the first Advent.
At that time we will gather happily at the home of someone drinking glögg (mulled wine) and eat saffron buns and gingerbread.
Glögg is spiced wine, that we drink hot with almonds and raisins.
There are many varieties of glögg.
Now there is even vintage glögg.
This is how the 2013 glögg bottle looks. The design is inspired by traditional Dalecarlian painting
The taste is very good. Not too sweet and with a lot of flavor of wine and spices.
