The Corton Hill

By Steen Öhman October 5, 2020 - Leave a Comment

Today I am starting on the most daunting project of them all - the mighty Corton hill. This unique and complex vineyard is a lifelong study, and presumably one would have to start all over in the midst of the project, as owners and vignerons would have changed. So, in reality, I will never …

Visit to Domaine Nicolas Faure – tasting the 2019s from cask

By Steen Öhman August 19, 2020 - Leave a Comment

It's good to be back in the Meuilley cellar of Nicolas Faure, in a lovely village with for me a tricky name to spell - Meuilley, Meuilley, Meuilley, Meuilley - in the valley above Nuits-Saint-Georges 😝 On this visit I was with Paul Wasserman and his team, harking back to the first tasting …

Visit to Domaine Naudin-Ferrand – poetry up and above

By Steen Öhman May 1, 2020 - Leave a Comment

«Viola Odorata» - a poetic name for a very lyrical wine. This is more or less where my infatuation starts... I have tasted Claire Naudin's wines and, while I really liked and enjoyed them, thus far the tastings had been in more informal "hippie"-like circumstances. These wines are, however, …

Visit to Domaine Michel Mallard – tasting the red 2018s

By Steen Öhman January 17, 2020 - Leave a Comment

I'm back below the Corton hill in Ladoix-Serrigny, visiting Michel Mallard at his family estate that is conveniently called ... Domaine Michel Mallard, after his grandfather. For a bit more info on the Michel Mallard estate check the article about the white 2018s. Ladoix a part of Aloxe …
