Dale,
Frantz Saumon is one of the producers brought in by Selection
Massale, a small CA-based importer started by two winegeeks who used to
work at Terroir in San Francisco. They now have a NYC presence, too
(Guillhaume, one of the two principals, moved to NYC last year) so you
should be able to locate their wines. I still have the '10 Mineral +
and they just offered another, "better" cuvée from him recently. They
also bring in Jerome Lenoir's "Dom. les Roches" Chinon, which is very
fine and Dom. Duplessis's wines from the Jura, among many others.
