No referencing to the ‘power’ of burgundy-report.com in this article Bill, unlike the Decanter one 😉
First mention I’ve seen of a DRC Montrachet suffering. The denial bit sounds familiar though!

The rest of Burgundy gets off light — he attributes the problem only to Côte de Beaune wines.
Anecdotally, it would appear that the market is changing. I’m seeing current vintages of certain wines on the shelves and getting e-mail offers for others that had been much more difficult to obtain in the recent past.
Agreed Claude; a few merchants have told me that this is the case.
