Hi Barry,

Wow, sounds great. Then I saw the price [shock.gif]

Are you sure that rating wasn’t price-value inflated? I’ve had a lot of Bourgogne and no doubt they can be exceptional values and very drinkable, but there isn’t a single one that would rate as a true 92.

Yes Henry limited supply and mostly allocated !!

It is not expensive, I think I paid ~€17-- for my bottles.
The issue is that there is virtually no distribution.

Yes, quality of a Burgundy wine depends largely on its producer!!
