Producer Visits

I now travel to Burgundy 5 to 6 times a year to taste wines from the best producers.

From each visit I produce an article with tasting notes and relevant informations about the producer and the vintage at hand.

Visit to Clément Boillot – Tasting the Domaine Ghislaine Barthod 2020s

Visit to Domaine Leflaive – Tasting the 2020s During Elevage

I've tasted quite a few white 2020s, and I was therefore delighted and excited to taste the '20s at Domaine Leflaive with Pierre Vincent, the estate's winemaker and general manager. Improvements in the new Leflaive era Domaine Leflaive has undertaken some major improvements, including a …

Domaine de la Pousse d’Or: The Past Embraces the Future

By Steen Öhman April 7, 2022 - Leave a Comment

La Pousse d'Or occupies a strange blind spot in my Burgundian mind, as the greatness of its historic efforts and its rebuilding under Patrick Landanger was just getting under way when I began to collect Burgundies in the mid- to late-1990s. I never really knew the old estate management under …
