Decanter News: “The latest Burgundy export figures suggest the region’s wines are becoming harder for consumers to find and there are fears that prices have risen too strongly.”
…I suppose the obvious reaction is – no shit Sherlock…
To distract me from such pricing, I’ve been reading Jerome’s tour of domaines during harvest. Good stuff.

Hi Bill,
Many thanks for the ‘Good stuff’ link – much appreciated!
I am not sure it is also an English verb, but as we say ‘all medals have two sides’… Indeed some wines are hard to get however, there is still plenty of 2008 available and yes, there are price increases up to +50%but many domains stay with their small increment per vintage policy. So we still are able to offer great 2009 and 2010 and purchase 2011 and 2012 against reasonable prices.
Thanks for the pub Bill! I have been loving your dailies as well.
