My First Impressions of 2022

By Steen Öhman May 8, 2023 - Leave a Comment

I have had my first tastings of the 2022 wines at several domaines, and let’s be realistic: It is early in their development. Still, after having tasted at (amongst a few others) Nicolas Faure, Bastian Wolber, Bastien Gautheron, Comte de Vogüė, and now Comte Liger-Belair, I'm going to make an early …

2019, 2020, and 2021

By Steen Öhman February 13, 2023 - Leave a Comment

The 2019 vintage is a truly great year for red Burgundy, and the whites are also growing on me as time goes by. The '19s have a hedonistic flair in their details that makes them both complex and delicate, while both the reds and whites seduce you with gorgeous generosity. The 2020s are a …

2020 Whites: A View of Greatness

By Steen Öhman May 25, 2022 - Leave a Comment

In recent weeks I have gotten a better grip on the 2020 vintage of white Burgundies, and let me be direct: They have impressed me considerably. Now, after a few weeks of tasting Domaine Leflaive, Domaine Roulot, Benjamin Leroux, and Domaine Matrot, I'm convinced that the 2020s are amongst the best …

2021 at First Glance

By Steen Öhman March 23, 2022 - Leave a Comment

I have now tasted a few 2021s, and while I've tried to avoid sampling too many while still tasting the big, intense 2020s, the time has come for first impressions. I saw the harvest, participated in the harvest, and watched the winemaking. Now I am following the elevage as part of the process of …
