KeeperCollection @keepercoll @CharlesComm 92 -big change-bf then > pigage & > pumpover fruit density was very low & tried to extract. 2 get >wines - not good #SommChat
Charles Comm PR @CharlesComm @keepercoll #Sommchat are you saying extraction experiment didn't work?
Christopher Miller @noblewines #sommchat @peterwasserman @keepercoll Q - When you aren't drinking #burgundy #wine, what is your go-to?
KeeperCollection @keepercoll @noblewines fr Bruno richebourg & chassagne #sommchat wines that combine finesse and precision
Christopher Miller @noblewines @peterwasserman Does he know Philippe Huguenot? Just bought a cpl pallets of his #burgundy for NY #sommchat
Peter Wasserman @peterwasserman @noblewines #Sommchat Philippe Huguenot is making all the right moves for better quality wines as per Bruno
Shiba Sommelier @ShibaSommelier Q - What is the hardest decision you have to make in the vineyard? #sommchat #wine @keepercoll @peterwasserman
KeeperCollection @keepercoll @ShibaSommelier a. Fr Bruno #sommchat picking date is sometimes the hardest thing to determine -this brings anxiety
Shiba Sommelier @ShibaSommelier Q - What is the hardest decision you have to make in the vinification process? #sommchat #wine @keepercoll @peterwasserman
KeeperCollection @keepercoll @ShibaSommelier fr Bruno Clair - in vinification no hard decisions #SommChat
KeeperCollection @keepercoll @ShibaSommelier Vinification - so many questions - there is not one more diff that the other #SommChat
Douglas Trapasso @demilove @keepercoll - Have alcohol %ages for your Burgundies stayed pretty consistent over multiple vintages? - #SommChat
KeeperCollection @keepercoll @demilove #sommchat 2012 was very high 2013 looking for sugar harvesting 12.4 potential had to chapitalize .5 deg at those near 11.5
Lee Schlesinger @WineKnowProd How was 2013 vintage for you? Lots of mixed reports with special focus on hail in the south. Yields, quality, challenges. #SommChat
KeeperCollection @keepercoll @WineKnowProd only a few rot spots in cotes de nuits but I usually have vineyards cleaned up before they are picked #SommChat
KeeperCollection @keepercoll @WineKnowProd #SommChat major league hit in savings pernand and corton -made 12 barrels total instead of 30 quality great :)
Kay Marley-Dilworth @ATXFoodnews @shibasommelier All great questions for #SommChat today! cc @keepercoll, @peterwasserman #Wine
Shiba Sommelier @ShibaSommelier Q - Are you having a hard time reaching millennials? How are you marketing to them? #sommchat #wine @keepercoll
KeeperCollection @keepercoll @ShibaSommelier #sommchat don't do any communication 2 mills. I am amazed that those under 30 spend the amt of money they do on wine
Shiba Sommelier @ShibaSommelier Q - What is your most important market for your wines? #sommchat #wine @keepercoll
Christopher Miller @noblewines RT @ShibaSommelier: Q - What is your most important market for your wines? #sommchat #wine @keepercoll I'd be interested in that
KeeperCollection @keepercoll @ShibaSommelier #SommChat England and America
Christopher Miller @noblewines @keepercoll bad and yet positive news, #burgundy prices have gone crazy in last 6 months in US market #sommchat
Christopher Miller @noblewines @keepercoll Bruno how hard is it to keep our (US) allocations out of the China market? #sommchat @peterwasserman are they begging?
KeeperCollection @keepercoll @noblewines Fr Bruno 3 ph calls a day fr China but with so little wine in last 4 vintages we serve our current custs. 1st #SommChat
Christopher Miller @NobleWines I thank you and @AdamPlotkin thanks you #SommChat
@keepercoll @noblewines Fr Bruno with so little wine in last 4 vintages I am afraid that ppl will forget village level #wine and look elsewhere #SommChat
Christopher Miller @noblewines @keepercoll I feel that #champagne suffered such a fate when their pricing made it tough 4 by the glass in US restaurants #sommchat
Charles Comm PR @CharlesComm We love the AOC of Bonnes Mares, what do you think distinguishes it most from other climates in Burgundy? #sommchat
KeeperCollection @keepercoll @charlescommpr Bruno says geology is big diff. Bonnes mares we are on white Soil so #wines have lot of finesse #SommChat
Chris McFall @C_McFall What is your favorite vineyard of the wines you make? #SommChat
KeeperCollection @keepercoll Fr Bruno cazetiers because I personally love it @c_mcfall #sommchat
KeeperCollection @keepercoll @C_McFall #sommchat what I like abt bones mares is that they are good young old and middle aged and they are always balanced but underdog
Chris McFall @C_McFall @keepercoll #SommChat love Bonnes Mares, so complex! Really enjoy 'en la rue de vergy'. One of my favorites!
Christopher Miller @noblewines @C_McFall was thrilled when en la rue got upgraded to 1er Cru a decade or so ago #sommchat
Keeper Collection @keepercoll Why do you use huge barrels #SommChat
Christopher Miller @noblewines RT @keepercoll: Why do you use huge barrels #SommChat define huge for me please
KeeperCollection @keepercoll @noblewines fr Bruno #alsacian ovals bw 1000-1500 liters #sommchat
KeeperCollection @keepercoll @keepercoll fr Bruno #SommChat I only use on big cuvees to keep freshness on the #wine and avoid oakiness
KeeperCollection @keepercoll @keepercoll Bruno when not drinking #burgundy wines what do you like to drink? #SommChat
KeeperCollection @keepercoll Fr Bruno white I like #alsace wines and red Italian #wines #SommChat
Christopher Miller @noblewines RT @keepercoll: Fr Bruno white I like #alsace wines and red Italian #wines #SommChat what red Ital regions are your favs?
