Deep and grapey. Smooth and dry. 20 bucks from Costco. A deal. Even better with air time — 9 years ago

Not a rosé - but rather a vin gris made from Pinot Gris. Exceptional structure with light strawberry and melon flavors meeting a mineral backbone of a very pleasing quality! I could drink this all summer. — 10 years ago
In its window. Super aromatic. Terrific and pure. — 10 years 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. — 8 years ago

On the Lawn at Tanglewood this evening with the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Our conductor Andris Nelsons is leading just one wonderful piece, MAHLER (Symphony No. 3), accompanied with the Tanglewood Festival Chorus.
We're revisiting some producer bottles from our late Spring France vacation earlier this year.
Stunning nose of pineapple core, wildflower honey and wet stones, I'm not sure I can actually describe all the magic happening in this glass. Palate is evolving with each sip, under-ripe pineapple, over-ripe pear, watery honey, light oak touch and wet slate dust. Just amazing!
Photos of beautiful late Spring (2018) biodynamic vineyard rows in Saint Aubin, my winemaker crush Jean Jacques Morel giving us the low down inside his living cellar and our bottle of the evening.
We only enjoyed about 1/3 of the bottle, saving for a day or so to see where this goes, notes will be updated. — 7 years ago

Red berries with a light cedar/pine aroma. Round and balanced on the palate with a sense of Minervois terroir. A pleasant, reasonably priced wine that's a new favorite! — 9 years ago
Coffee and raspberry on the nose. Soft, smooth, lots of flavor. — 10 years ago

Very well rounded for a wine in this price range. Nice fruit and mouthfeel. Can probably age a few years too. — 6 years ago
