I spent 10 days in Bordeaux in April doing extensive tastings. During my time there, I tasted over 300 barrel samples of the 2024 vintage, more than 50 2022 wines, a few 2023 wines that have already been bottled, and some additional 2023 wines scheduled to be bottled in May and June. My summary on the 2024 vintage is now available for reading. Tasting notes will be posted later.
As of March 2025, in addition to the tasting notes and ratings already posted on my website, you can confidently find my comprehensive tasting notes and ratings for various wines on Wine-Searcher. These are complemented by pricing and purchasing details provided by the platform. Be sure to visit my website, and you can access Wine-Searcher using the link provided here.
1.Tasting notes and ratings on recently tasted 2022s are continuously added in the section "2022 Bordeaux from barrel and after bottling". Tasting notes from Raymond Lafon's vertical (April 2024) in 21 vintages from 2023 to 1979 and Tertre Roteboeuf's vertical (November 2024) in 21 vintages from 2022 to 1982, you will find in the section "Horisontal and vertical tastings".
2. In late October 2024, I enjoyed four adventurous days visiting famous and lesser-known properties in Bordeaux and tasted several wines from the 2022, 2021, and 2020 vintages. In April 2024, I visited Bordeaux and tasted barrel samples from the 2023 vintage, plus several wines from older vintages. A detailed report of these two trips is in the "Vintages" section.
3. Tasting notes on wines sampled in October 2023 in Copenhagen, made by Danish winemaker Peter Sisseck in Spain (including Pingus, Flor de Pingus, PSI) and Bordeaux (such as La Fleur Rocheyron and Rocheyron) are available in the section "Horisontal and vertical tastings".
4. The Burgundy and Beaujolais section features tasting reviews of the best wines from these regions, from both well-known and lesser-known producers. In April 2022, I tasted Morgon Côte du Puy from five different producers, focusing on the 2018 and 2019 vintages. Additionally, I tasted other wines from the same producers in June 2022. In August 2023, I tasted wines from the 2020 vintage from these producers and from other notable winemakers.
5. I frequently share my tasting notes on an excellent website managed by Pekka Nuikki from Finland: https://tastingbook.com/. Primo March 2025, I had over 12.650+ followers and 3.540+ TNs there. In Tastingbook's 2024 "The Best Wine Critic in the World" competition, I ranked 22nd among 37 finalists.
