Too distant for precise notes. Recall a nicely balanced and clean wine, with savory elements, good structure and supporting fruit. — 4 months ago
Definite microbial weirdness going on. I can’t get past it to what is likely a tasty wine underneath. — 4 months ago
Worth it. A bit hot, but loving how that 30% Mourvèdre shines through the 70% Grenache in this 2018 vintage. Lots of forest floor, then gobs of berry fruit from the Grenache. Tone down the octane a smidge and this would be a spectacular bottle. As it is, pretty good. — 4 months ago
A bit disappointing tbh. I am a fan of Romorantin as a white wine from Cheverney, but as a sparkling wine - it just didn’t quite work. A bit awkward, slightly “dirty”, and while some oxidation can be nice with some bready/ biscuity notes, this was too far into the oxidized flavors. — 2 months ago
Meh? A bit flabby. Had a nice salinity and minerality to it. But just seemed really tired and senescent. It sounds like other vintages of this wine has been lovely, but the 2022 is not. — 4 months ago

Just meh. Black tea and subtle cherries. Just kind of think and boring and short. Not what I was hoping for. — a month ago
