They are out of control. In order to get a Pif allocation, I had to buy across the range - L'Arpent Rouge and Gamay included.

They didn't. But I was able to turn it over at auction, despite funny font on the label.

CRB = Clos Roche Blanche

Pif is not an abbreviation. It is the name of a cuvee that Clos Roche Blanche produces (I believe a blend of Cabernet Franc and Malbec). It is named after the dog of the owners of Clos Roche Blanche.

A search within wine disorder does a bit better. "CRB+wine" brings it up on the first page in google.
