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 Benjamin Leroux – Tasting the 2020 Whites

By Steen Öhman April 22, 2022 - Leave a Comment

I have known Benjamin Leroux almost since he started at Domaine Comte d'Armand in Pommard back in 1999 - i.e. some 20 years. I have perhaps not always fully appreciated his wines, but in recent years the style and quality have grown on me. And now I find myself really enjoying Ben's wines; …

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 …

Visit to Domaine Pierrick Bouley – Tasting the 2020 Vintage

By Steen Öhman March 18, 2022 -

It's been some years since I visited Domaine Pierrick Bouley, and it is good to be back in this cool cellar in the centre of Volnay. I had tasted a few 2019s from Pierrick and they showed lovely promise. I was, therefore, eager to visit on my 2020 tasting round. I am not planning to visit all …

Visit to Domaine Georges Noëllat – Tasting the 2020s from Cask

By Steen Öhman March 10, 2022 -

I'm back at Domaine Georges Noëllat to taste the 2020s now that malolactic fermentation is finished. After Maxime Cheurlin decided to cool down his cellars, the elevage is quite a bit slower. Tasting the wines during the summer following the harvest is now a bit premature, as the malolactic …
