Marrutt has it for sale as Darkroom Range SemiGloss in the UK 
<http://www.marrutt.com/300-vin-semi-gloss.php> ..  There isn't enough 
volume of it in the US yet to find it in retail shops.  In the US, it is 
offered as "Darkroom Range Archival Quality Premium Gloss"

Paul Roark feels it has the same weak dMax as the Oriental FB, but, 
since you like that paper as well, dMax may not be the deciding factor 
for you..

However, you'll see it isn't yet available in large sizes either (agggh)..
