Ah, another Prieure! I posted about a burgundy last week; Dale Williams who follows all things burgundy much closer than I do/can from my perch up here in the Pac NW said he hasn't heard of this producer before. Sounds nice; I liked an aligote about a year ago but haven't seen any chardonnay.
My wine shopping and I have never had a problem. Just a perpetual race between the bankruptcy court and Hell.--Rogov
