@keepercoll #SommChat The company motto is "We do not sell what we do not drink". France is rich in appellations, it's a treasure trove. The Loire, Languedoc, and Roussillon are examples. We look for something special, like a flash, quantity is secondary.

@keepercoll #SommChat Peter & Paul Wasserman are our roadies until we wear them out, then the younger members of the home team will go on the road. We are very much a hands-on company.

@keepercoll #SommChat A glass of bourgogne from old vines is often tastier than a premier cru on its fourth leaf. The modest cuvées are a good indication as to the style of a winemaker. These wines often drink well when they are young.

@keepercoll #SommChat It's agriculture with a weather dependent crop, and we do our best. Allocations of certain domaines are evidently reduced. We honor our long term customers, each year is a new puzzle.

@keepercoll #SommChat Our main market is the USA, and we are beginning to work in Scandinavia, Russia, the UK, Hong Kong, Chile, & Mexico. We do not work with volume so our possibilities for expansion are limited. We would like to work with more states in the USA as well.

@keepercoll #SommChat Survival for myself, my family, and the company. Glamour doesn't enter into it, and inspiration comes from the winemakers we represent.

@keepercoll @stevenpmcdonald I've been banished from the office because my lack of computer skills. I work from the house, I answer my correspondance, and I receive customers at the house with the help of Russell.

@keepercoll #SommChat For red burgundies - less maceration, whole cluster, very little sulfur. For whites - growers are less afraid of oxygen throughout vinification.

@keepercoll #SommChat Burgundians say that wine is a living entity. When a wine goes from one age to another - childhood, maturity, old age - it shuts down during the transition. We can't tell when this is going to happen.

@keepercoll #SommChat It is entirely a team decision. We taste together, we are three generations, and we hope for a consensus.
