There are currently 3 Cuvée Busters in commerce.

1. Domaine Franck Peillot Altesse de Montagnieu 1999 Cuvée Buster -- this is perhaps the best Cuvée Buster we've done. Stunning minerality, beautiful depth and fullness, what more can you ask from an Altesse from the Bugey? By the way, the 'g' is pronounced as a soft g. The region is not the Boogie. 50 cases were made.

2. Domaine Thomas-Labaille Sancerre Chavignol Cuvée Buster 1999 -- actually this is a one-barrel production from La Grande Côte, one of the best vineyard sites in Chavignol. 25 cases were made.

3. Domaine de la Pépière Muscadet Vieilles Vignes Cuvée Buster 1997 -- this is 50 cases that were set aside from the grand 1997 Muscadet vintage and that come only from the best vineyards in the hamlet of Pépière. Unfortunately, I would liked to have sold this in ten years, but the grower and I need money.
