Big Red Diary started with reports from the 2003 harvest that didn't fit within the normal format of this site. It has evolved to a log of current corkscrew activity and news. With 1777 visits (so far) today and 16023 in the last 8 days, it is the site's most visited area. The effort and content certainly wax and wane, but despite that, this 2148 day old diary contains 1,024 posts and 1,261 comments.

spotted in vosne, and…

domaine de eugenie I spotted this while taking a tour around Vosne the other week.

It seems that (Château!) Domaine de Eugenie are not just increasing the prices for their wines, they are actually spending some money on facilities and updating them too!

I know the owner of the building in the picture, so asked what was happening,  but apparently no contracts are currently signed, so I won’t say who is selling the facility and why – not yet anyway ;-)

Also I found an engrossing story about a couple (He Japanese, She Korean) making their life as producers of Burgundy. I love this quote – sums it up for me too:

The couple say they want to make wine that makes you wonder what the next glass will taste like
