Visit to Domaine Heresztyn-Mazzini – Tasting the 2020s

By Steen Öhman June 21, 2022 - Leave a Comment

Domaine Heresztyn-Mazzini. Yes, Domaine Heresztyn-Mazzini. It is a long and difficult name, and probably not the greatest marketing asset given to Florence and Simon Mazzini. But names tell a story, give some history, and are therefore important in how we present ourselves to the world. Sometimes …

Exploring the Domaine Tawse Musigny

By Steen Öhman June 14, 2022 - Leave a Comment

It is rare to see new wines from the top grand crus like Richebourg, Romanee Saint-Vivant, or Musigny. The ownership structures there are relatively fixed, but despite this, Domaine Tawse has been able to create a new Musigny over the last 10-15 years. Furthermore, it's an exciting wine that has …

Vin de soif: I use this term carefully, as it expresses an opinion about both drinkability and complexity. A grand cru from a great producer and vintage will often have substantial complexity and depth that require reflection and a deeper interpretation of the hedonistic side. A wine such as this …

On the Table, In the Glass #35: The Need for Indulgence

By Steen Öhman June 3, 2022 - Leave a Comment

Let me be clear: Wine is about hedonism and joy, and it is always timely and appropriate to open a vin d'émotion. The prices of some wines are astronomical, but it is rarely the fault of the winegrower, who often gets less than 20% of the inflated grey-market price. What! How can you open ... …
