Richard Kelly's Jasnieres

Thanks. Nice work. I had no idea. Do you know him?

I can understand not including Robuchon, but I wonder what he has against Patapon?
 
I did get a email from him just this morning, presumably from requesting news. It looked like a group mailing.

Jeff I don't know Richard personally, but we've exchanged a few bibliography-related emails.
Of course, I would prefer he publish a more thorough reference index on his site. That said, the current Loir citations are an improvement over the previous set of Savennieres references. So perhaps I had a smidgeon of influence there.

Will read carefully later, but I applaud anyone who takes the region seriously enough to research it and post their thoughts.

Here.

Richard Kelley's pages became unreachable sometime in 2023. Bummer.

Anyone know if the content has perhaps moved elsewhere?
 
That's the Wayback Machine. It keeps copies of websites as of a certain date and only to a certain depth. But it looks like that is a really good snapshot.

The domain is valid for another year so he didn't run off the end of the lease.

I wrote to the webmaster and got an automated response saying "not hosted here"... which is puzzling but it's the end of the conversation.

I then wrote to him directly at Dreyfus, Ashby. Awaiting a response.

I was told he's likely too busy running Dreyfus, Ashby to focus on his site, but hopefully we will hear directly from him.
 
Richard responds:

Hi Jeff,

Thanks for the email.

After 12 years (the last thing I published was in 2011), I decided that the site had run its course and I’ve let it go.

If you ever need any specific advise, just let me know and I will be happy to help where I can.

Best regards

Richard
