posted by Claude Kolm has been writing The Fine Wine Review since 1986. At the end of 2014, it switched to a blog in order to allow more timely and in depth information about estates. @ 12:20 PM
Currently, The Fine Wine Review specializes in wines of Burgundy and Germany, although coverage is given to other areas, as time permits.
In addition to writing for The Fine Wine Review, Claude Kolm has also written for The World of Fine Wine and Taste Magazine.
The cover article that he wrote on the Domaine de la Romanée-Conti and Aubert de Villaine for The World of Fine Wine can be found at: http://www.academiedesvinsanciens.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Aubert-de-Villaine-dans-Fine-Wine-Magazine.pdf.
