    Portrait of Aina Mee Myhre

    i. Biography

    Her palate is set for wines that hold a line: dry, precise, and structurally sure, the sort that finish clean and leave little behind except shape and balance.

    The Climb

    Training at BI Norwegian Business School gave Aina Mee Myhre a commercial base that later read directly into her work with wine: clear judgment, market sense, and a disciplined eye for style. Those skills now sit behind Heyday Wines, where Aina pairs business control with a taste profile that stays exacting rather than decorative.

    Today

    Managing Director of Strøm AS, Aina Mee Myhre also runs the Oslo company she founded, and her own words make the operating philosophy plain: “I am relatively happy to choose my own wine and I am not so concerned that the wine should match every bite of food perfectly.” The preference is consistent with the rest of the list. Dry sparkling wine comes first, whether Champagne or Brut Nature Cava, while red leans toward Garnacha from Spain or Nebbiolo from Piemonte. The thread through all of it is freshness, lift, and definition.

    Signature

    Aina's signature dishes include Fredag, La Parra Albariño 2015, Principiano Langhe Rosso 2016, and Lanson Vintage 1996. Read together, they point to a table that favors tension over weight: Albariño for clarity and saline edge, Langhe Rosso for supple depth, and vintage Champagne for poise.

    In Their Words “I have to absolutely say that my favorites come from the Old World. I like lean, mineral whites and juicy, acid-driven reds, so I usually end up in Europe.” “I am relatively happy to choose my own wine and I am not so concerned that the wine should match every bite of food perfectly.”
