Most are presented as christening gifts at birth.

Link to The Walls tasting notes here.
And for the Scandinavian among you, editor Per Karlsson (also of Forbes.com) has taken the time to translate them to Swedish as well.
Link to Swedish The Walls tasting notes here.
I really appreciate the translation, as Sweden boasts a thriving international sommelier community supportive of unique, small lot wines.

Skol!
