Very Fine (93 - 94)

Domaine Dujac Gevrey-Chambertin Aux Combottes 2010

By Steen Öhman February 9, 2020 - Leave a Comment

The 2010 Aux Combottes is developing slowly yet surely, and beginning to show some maturing notes. This is a gorgeous effort with lovely tension and energy. It still shows quite some tannins in the lovely 2010 manner - effortless and refined - as well as the coolness of this delightful year. More …

Domaine Dujac Vosne-Romanée Les Beaux Monts 2010

By Steen Öhman February 8, 2020 - Leave a Comment

The 2010 Vosne-Romanée Les Beaux Monts is unfolding nicely - here being served with the equally good Gevrey Aux Combottes.

This is of course the Musigny Blanc, which is just beginning to regain its former glory after the vineyard was replanted. Note - the first vintage of Musigny Blanc Grand Cru post-replanting was 2015. The 2010 …

Domaine de la Douaix Corton Blanc 2017

By Steen Öhman February 7, 2020 - Leave a Comment

Domaine de la Douaix is one of the few producers of white Corton - meaning a white wine made from the Corton vineyard, but outside the Corton-Charlemagne appellation. Complex - yes; French - very much so, and charming indeed! I love these idiosyncrasies that make Burgundy Bourgogne. This wine is …

The delicacy and maturity of undervalued vintages

By Steen Öhman October 29, 2019 - 4 Comments

The focus on points and ratings often stands in the way of appreciating and understanding mature Burgundies from "lesser" years. We tend to collect the big, bold, "great" vintages, and that stream of velvet pinot almost washes away the delicate enjoyment of mature wines from lesser …
