Points are a useless guide to lesser wines

By Steen Öhman January 2, 2021 - Leave a Comment

Visit to Domaine Duroché – tasting the 2019s from cask

By Steen Öhman July 31, 2020 -

Emotional whites … a Winehog view

By Steen Öhman March 21, 2020 - Leave a Comment

Vins d’émotion - Burgundies of passion - have been uppermost in my mind since the fall trip I made to Burgundy. They have taken up a fair amount of space in these pages as well. While there is some consensus between myself and my circle of wine-loving acquaintances as to the characteristics of red …
