Are you talking about the street level floor or the one below? If you mean the one below, unless he was heating it, that may in essence be a comment about the insulation of the cellar; I've been in there under prior occupants when it was uncomfortably cold.originally posted by .sasha:
the place did not strike me as the coldest cellar either.

Hello,originally posted by Claude Kolm:
Some, such as Nol Pinguet at Hut, decided that principles had to be sacrificed in the name of having a crop.
pab -- As I indicated, my information is second-hand, but from someone who is fairly close to Pinguet. My understanding, but I could be wrong as this question did not specifically come up in the conversation, is that Pinguet made the decision. He has always had a relaxed approach to biodynamie, as opposed, say, to Joly who is a true believer.originally posted by pab:

Pinguet is one of the pionner of biodynamie in France. It's a Pinguet decision or a Hwang decision ? A vigneron decision or a financial decision ?

I think your English might not be up to fully understanding what I said. If one compares biodynamie to religion, there are fundamentalists and there are others who have a less literal approach while still adhering to the religion. From what I know, I would put Pinguet in the latter group.originally posted by pab:

A relaxed ?

Not a relaxed. Biodynamie is in the core business of this estate.

If what I heard was true, that the decision was a joint one with many of the best names in Vouvray and Montlouis, I presume it was winemakers.
But the assumption that financial decisions and winemaking decisions are utterly distinct seems amusing to me. Is not having a crop in a year a financial catastrophe or a winemaking catastrophe?
