Domaine Dublere, Savigny Les Vergeless 2011

By Steen Öhman November 12, 2012 -

The Savigny Les Vergeless from Dublere is a very good effort from this appelation. On the palate quite some reduction, fine citrus driven fruit with hints of apple and pear. On the palate lovely balanced and quite refined with a tight and focused fruit and a very nice minerality. (Drink from 2014) …

Domaine Dublere, Bourgogne Blanc – Les Millerandes 2011

By Steen Öhman November 12, 2012 -

The palate …

By Steen Öhman November 11, 2012 -

The Mazis-Chambertin 2011 Mazis-Chambertin is in my view a step up from the Chames Chambertin. In the nose lovely red and dark forest berries, a slightly dusty minerality and some hints of pomegranate. On the palate more deep fruit on the midpalate - very fine concentration and length. A lovely …
