Clos de la Maréchale – The largest monopole in Burgundy

By Steen Öhman September 27, 2015 -

Clos de la Maréchale is a Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er cru and the largest monopole in Burgundy ... surpassing both Clos de Tart and Clos des Lambrays in Morey-Saint-Denis. During many years Clos de la Maréchale was under the radar of many Burgundy collectors, but when Frédéric Mugnier of Domaine …

Domaine Faiveley, Mercurey La Framboisiére 2012

By Steen Öhman December 7, 2014 -

WineHog rating system – more than points

By Steen Öhman January 1, 1990 - Leave a Comment

My aim with the Winehog is unchanged, but I have for some time wanted a stronger focus on the hedonistic pleasure and simple enjoyment of drinking Burgundies. I have therefore adjusted my mission statement: "My mission is to help readers find more joy and hedonistic pleasure in Burgundy wines; to …
