short notes from the Winehog …


Vin d’émotion is perfect phenolic ripeness

I have now used Vin d’émotion for five years, and it’s clear to me that this evaluation method is more correct and even simpler than the traditional 50-100 point Parker scale. It has worked very well, but so far, I…

a lovely tasting and lunch with Pascal and Odilon Marchand in the Beaune tasting rooms.



Diving back into the brilliant 2023 vintage ... Pascal nailed the 2023s - taking the Marchand-Tawse estate to a new level.



The 2023s are terroir and joy driven with a magnificent transparency to the energetic and juicy fruit.



The wines from the entry level Coteaux Bourguignons via the new Gevrey CPB to the Clos Saint-Denis are all gorgeous expressions of pinot. Taking it even further with the Mazis Chambertin and finally the illustrious Musigny - all statements taking Marchand-Tawse into a new league.



Vin d`émotion ... my kind of Burgundies ❤️
