2021 Le Ban Pinot from Julien Altaber / Domaine Derain. Bracing acid with rose petal floral quality, a bit of black tea-esque earth - I think I woulda called this a jura poulsard if blinded! Super yummy light bodied juice but with loads of personality. My kind of French bistro table wine :) — 16 days ago

100% Meunier. Faint fruit, lime pith. Dry. Very elegant. Ended up working perfect with bulgogi and ban chan 🤷🏻‍♂️. — 2 years ago

6/21/23. Last dinner in RVA with Jess and Ban. Quilceda never disappoints, especially when it has some more age on it — a year ago

Pretty funky upon opening. Horsey like a Raffault. But there is a sense of big cherry fruit lurking. Very floral as well. Some combo there of fresh flowers and horseshit. After 30-45 minutes the shit is gone and it’s all violets, earth and cherries. Awesome. Morel is magic. Palate is deep, raw like only Morel can be, with terrific freshness and acidity and a lovely rusticity. St Aubin Rouge are not the most elegant Burgundies but they have so much more than elegance. This wine is long. Really long. It’s a crazy wine that I think with 3-4 more years will really show well. This is like a young version of the 08. — 7 years ago

Wifey enjoyed it, so that should tell you something. Typical St Aubun. Presents roundish (oak treatment), but as it transitions to the mid palate, there’s focus and depths. Pure notes of almonds, and white fleshy fruits. Finishes sweet. A more contemporary example from this region. — a year ago

Browny red colour, raisins on the nose with a bit of spice and alcohol. Full bodied, plummy and sweet tannins on the ban of the tongue balancing it all. Classic. — 5 years ago
