Domaine Comte de Vogüé Chambolle-Musigny 1er cru 2005

By Steen Öhman April 17, 2020 -

I recall being somewhat skeptical in late 2007 when I tasted the 2005 vintage from de Vogüé in Copenhagen. They were big, intense wines with plenty of everything - and then some - except for the filigreed delicacy Burgundy can display in exceptional cases. Now, almost 15 years later, I feel an …

Domaine de Montille Clos Vougeot 2008

By Steen Öhman February 10, 2020 - Leave a Comment

The Domaine de Montille Clos Vougeot 2008 is showing fine intensity and concentration for the vintage.

Bouchard Pere et Fils, Beaune Greves l’Enfant Jesus 2017

By Steen Öhman May 3, 2019 -

The Beaune Greves l'Enfant Jesus is a signature wine for Bouchard Pere et Fils - and the 2017 edition is perhaps the most harmonious vintage I have tasted so far. The nose is vivid and expressive - classic Beaune - with a fine fruit and a nice and suitable impression of oak. On the palate elegant …
