Visit to Domaine Robert Sirugue – tasting the 2018 vintage

By Steen Öhman September 17, 2020 -

Embarrassing... The Winehog (aka Steen Öhman) seems to have forgotten to report the results from the tasting at Domaine Sirugue - in March! Mistakes have been made - clearly - during these COVID-19 times. But still, this is not a proud moment. My apologies to Sirugue, and to the readers who …
