Winehog Advice: Serving the 2018s

Steen Öhman
May 4, 2020

The 2018s are a crazy bunch of rather generous, rich wines, most – if not all – on the slightly hot side. It is therefore relevant to look at their optimal serving temperatures, as the wines sometimes lack a bit of freshness and acidity. Furthermore, some wines tend to over-ripeness, and they will generally benefit…

The Riedel and Zalto partnership – August 2019

Steen Öhman
August 18, 2019

“I, Winehog, take thee, Riedel/Zalto, to be my wedded stemware, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do us part, according to God’s holy ordinance; and thereto I pledge thee my faith.” This…

The 2014s were magnificent, and I was therefore delighted when I had…

Steen Öhman
April 26, 2015

Testing and evaluating stemware is a complex process, as the wine often changes over time after the initial sip .. it changes in the glass and also in the bottle. I reality you might think that one glass is best initially, but as the wine develops in the bottle … with air and temperature ……

Clash of the Titans: Riedel vs Zalto vs Riedel

Steen Öhman
April 22, 2015

As many know I normally use Zalto Burgundy stemware for young wines, and my old trusted Riedel Vinum for old and mature Burgundies. I have however decided to test some additional stemware to ensure I have the optimal tools when I taste my precious Burgundies. The first glass to be included in my experiments is…
