It is a great read, Alex. I was exhausted even before I finished. Thirsty, too, of course.

Nice read Alex. Apart from the tastings, I love your take on the local scene, suggestions and other tidbits about the experience sprinkled in the blog...

Doesn't Boisset family is married into Gallo family of the US, and own vineyards such as Buena Vista Vineyards, etc. in Napa/Sonoma?

Congratulations for that report Alex. Worth the reading. Me too have to go to Bourgogne one day. You convinced me to buy some Hubert Lignier wines soon. I always liked them in the past, but for no reason, did not buy them in a long time... always focussing to much on Bordeaux!

Great write-up Alex. Lots of useful information delivered in an inviting and entertaining style. Like stefan, I'm thirsty for red Burgundy now.

Have started reading it and am enjoying. Your writing style is very Hemingway, which of course I consider the ultimate compliment. Short, concise sentences.

Wow great and comprehensive report. Those restaurant prices for the food seem pretty good.
