@patrickpiuze (patrick piuze): .@demilove @KeeperColl I think that I am humbled to be able to continue the work of the Monks. Not my place to rewrite history.#SommChat

@Ivywine (Ivywine): @KeeperColl @patrickpiuze – How would you define your #winemaking style? #SommChat #wine

@patrickpiuze (patrick piuze): .@Ivywine @KeeperColl Easy. As little interference as possible. Mother nature makes the #wine, not me. #SommChat

@enjoielife (Judia Black): @travelwinechick @patrickpiuze @KeeperColl An interesting distinction #SommChat

@SirenaDiVino (Courtney Richards): @patrickpiuze how was it working with Olivier Leflaive? Best story? @KeeperColl #Sommchat

@KeeperColl (Keeper Collection): #SommChat RT @enjoielife: @patrickpiuze #Chablis is one of fav styles of #Chardonnay. Love acidity! How did U come to specialize in #Chablis?

@patrickpiuze (patrick piuze): @enjoielife @KeeperColl Life and timing brought me to #Chablis and I took the wave and continue to surf it. #SommChat

@SquareWineCo (Square Wine Co.): @patrickpiuze @KeeperColl what are the fundamental differences between your label and the Val de Mer #wines? #SommChat

@patrickpiuze (patrick piuze): .@SquareWineCo @KeeperColl The same philosophy 4 the 2, but 2 different sites with their own personality. My approach is the same #SommChat

@demilove (Douglas Trapasso): @SirenaDiVino – COURTNEY ! ! ! Haven’t tweeted w/you in months! Hope you are well. Would you like me to Tweet you some snow? -#SommChat

@patrickpiuze (patrick piuze): .@SirenaDiVino @KeeperColl I am overwhelmed by this beautiful statement. #humbled #SommChat

@winecompass (WineCompass): Q @patrickpiuze Do you still see any negative residue in the #US market due to mass produced #California “Chablis”? #SommChat

@patrickpiuze (patrick piuze): .@winecompass @KeeperColl Not anymore. Maybe if I made mass produced #wines but for me I do not see this. #SommChat

@Ivywine (Ivywine): @KeeperColl @patrickpiuze – Is there any particular producer you especially look up to? #SommChat #wine

@patrickpiuze (patrick piuze): .@Ivywine @KeeperColl I respect the work of Coche-Dury and Raveneau. Same as all of you I would assume. #SommChat

@noblewines (Christopher Miller): .Q 4 @patrickpiuze what are your thoughts on the influence of oak in #Chablis for some producers? #SommChat

@patrickpiuze (patrick piuze): .@Ivywine @KeeperColl 09 and 11 were lower acid but 08, 10, & 12 were very high acid. Maybe long term, we will see. #SommChat

@KeeperColl (Keeper Collection): Q. @PATRICKPIUZE We read that ur main intention is to make a real difference between “wine grower” & “winemaker”. Tell us abt that#SommChat

@patrickpiuze (patrick piuze): A. @KeeperColl I am not a #winemaker, nature does it. Our decision affects the final product – we try not to interfere with it… #SommChat

@patrickpiuze (patrick piuze): A. @KeeperColl and I think we will produce #wines that have more personality and truth that way #SommChat

@SirenaDiVino (Courtney Richards): @patrickpiuze @KeeperColl have you always specialized in chard? what drew you to #chard? #SommChat

@patrickpiuze (patrick piuze): .@SirenaDiVino @KeeperColl Not always but it seems to be the grape I am the least bad at making. #SommChat

@SquareWineCo (Square Wine Co.): @patrickpiuze @KeeperColl thoughts on less contact as it pertains to your wines #SommChat

@patrickpiuze (patrick piuze): A.@SquareWineCo @KeeperColl From harvest to 10 days B4 bottling, the #wines are on lees. All complexity in #Chard comes from lees.#SommChat

@patrickpiuze (patrick piuze): A. @KeeperColl Sorry to answer you that in 140 characters I can’t even start to explain it. #SommChat

@SirenaDiVino (Courtney Richards): @patrickpiuze @KeeperColl LOL #chardonnay is a forgiving maiden? how has she behaved differently for u in other areas of the world?#sommChat

@patrickpiuze (patrick piuze): .@SquareWineCo @KeeperColl No battonage. It tires the #wine prematurely. #SommChat

@wolfeswines (Jeffrey Wolfe): Humility comes though in his #wines as “decison maker” and not a #winemaker!…@patrickpiuze #SommChat WOW #lifeinawineshoppe

@SirenaDiVino (Courtney Richards): @patrickpiuze @KeeperColl tell us stories about other grapes you have worked with #sommChat

@patrickpiuze (patrick piuze): .@SirenaDiVino @KeeperColl #SauvBlanc & #Riesling in #Chile. These are the most recent. #SommChat

@KeeperColl (Keeper Collection): Q. @patrickpiuze What are the benefits of using neutral oak barrels and foudres when raising #wines instead of stainless steel?#SommChat

@patrickpiuze (patrick piuze): A. @KeeperColl Neutral barrels add density but no flavor. Stainless #wines are more on sharpness and freshness. Both can be good #SommChat
