Visit Domaine Georges Noëllat – tasting of the 2015s from Cask

By Steen Öhman December 27, 2016 -

Immense talent and effortlessness .. I always try to capture the core impressions and qualities of the estates I visit. I have followed Domaine Georges Noëllat since the 2011 vintage and have always been amazed by the effortless nature of the wines .. they are not forced, they are a natural …

Terroir Insight: Domaine du Comte Liger-Belair, NSG Aux Cras

By Steen Öhman April 29, 2016 -

One of my favorite wines from the Nuits-Saint-Georges is the Aux Cras made by Louis-Michel Liger-Belair.  It has all the qualities I look for in a Burgundian wine - it's very enjoyable, it's pure and transparent and first and foremost it offers a lovely expression of the "almost" Vosne …

Domaine du Comte Liger-Belair, Nuit-Saint-Georges Les Cras 2014

In the bouquet variations of sweet red and dark berries ... cherries, raspberries and pomegranate - spiced with hints of game and an …

Visit – Domaine Georges Noëllat tasting of the 2014s from Cask

By Steen Öhman January 17, 2016 -

Domaine Georges Noëllat has within a few years moved from the dark and unknown to a rising bright star on the Burgundy heaven. Maxime Cheurlin is in my view an unique talent ... a natural .. with an intuitive ability for making great Burgundies. Within a few years he has managed to improve quality …
