About Winehog.org

Welcome to the Winehog – my name is Steen Öhman, and I’m the editor, writer and owner of Winehog.org

Winehog was launched in 2011 and it’s a site focused on Burgundy wines – with articles, news and tasting notes covering all the best Burgundy can offer.

The articles and tasting notes are mainly written by me, Steen Öhman – you can find more information about me and my view on wine in my small Wine CV.

Some of the articles are premium content and require a paid subscription. Follow the instructions in the article if you want to have full access – then you will be able to upgrade to a paid subscriptionl

Winehog Consulting – how can I help you

I also do consulting work for private collectors, restaurants, agents and wine merchands. I write articles for other medias, producer profiles for wine merchands and importers, and I do seminars, tastings and masterclasses.

Why was the site named WineHog

20120409-141718.jpgYou might wonder why the site is called the WineHog.

There are two reasons. Firstly I have for many years claimed that I wanted to be reincarnated as a truffle pig, as this seems like a very useful and altruistic occupation.

Secondly the idea of a pig sniffing around in the terroirs to find the best plots and wines seemed more fun than a hound or an advocate.

So here we are … the Sus Scrofa Burgundia better know as the WineHog.

Submit a wine for review

Wine is expensive these days, and I don’t have unlimited budget to buy and taste wines. Time only permits a limited number of visits to producers, and therefore I really appreciate if producers or importers submit wines for review.

If you want to submit a wine for review please read the instructions on the submit a sample page found in this section.

Please contact me

The site is constantly changing as I get feedback from friends and followers from all over the world. Please contact me if you have comments to the site, my reviews – I really need all the feedback I can get. If you have a wine for reviewing, then please contact me via phone or email.
