Sometimes I have to force myself to buy a white that isn't Loire Valley Chenin ( but without actually leaving the Loire Valley, because that would be crazy.) This Cour-Cheverny made me glad I did. I've only had Romorantin a few times prior, but I loved the tart acidity balanced by a great saline minerality. — 9 years ago
Just the right amount of acidity. Vibrant and fruity. Uncle Dan likes it better than the older La Roquète. — 10 months ago
Nice wine to finish the evening with a crème brûlée. Not too sweet. Apricot, honey with some crispness. — 4 years ago
Paired well with the steak at Catbird Seat. A very earthy red. — 5 years ago
90% Pinot Noir, 10% Gamay. Biodynamic. A light wine with beautiful aromas of red berries acidulous type currant, raspberry. with a good decantation this wine deploys rich and varied nuances, it is absolutely necessary to do it to appreciate it at its fair value. that's wonderful ! well done — 6 years ago

Opens with confectioner’s sugar on the nose. The fat kid in me loves it. Pears and wildflowers and acid for days, minerals. Beeswax. Then when it opens it tastes like you’ve sliced into the juiciest grapefruit and are eating it whole with a little honey. Good stuff. Like spatlese. — 6 years ago
Nose is high toned with red and black cherry. Very pitty. Ripe but also a serious granite underlining. Very refined for 15. Good berry fruit almost cassis as well. It’s very clean and pure. Palate is complex, deep and juicy with really terrific tannins and mouthfeel. It’s tannins are so special and sweeten out on the finish. Long. Exceptional balance and purity. Love how this is like Bordeaux meets Gamay. A bit hot. I can any other vintage this being not hot and I’d have a higher score. It’s all there except the heat. — 7 years ago
Golden apples, bruised pear, gardenias, almonds, honeysuckle, saline, smoke. Rounded acid, medium-plus body, juicy-oily texture, crisp floral-stone fruit-honeyed finish.. Delicate aromatics unfolds nicely into rich texture, mineral driven, highly food friendly. Recommended for Chenin lovers.
