Cour-Cheverny 2008

Amazing white wine made from Romorantin grapes which visually looks like it’s 3-5 years old, at most, this grape variety is related to Chardonnay, but WAY drier, the entire appellation is 120 acres/48 hectares in the Loire valley, really a super unique wine that apparently will age almost forever, mineral, loads of acidity, needs food (which I don’t have in front of me — waaah!!), longish finish!! As an aside, there is a great Loire chateau to visit in this area, called Chateau de Cheverny, which is still lived in/occupied, but is well worth a visit!! Really amazing wine!! — 2 months ago

I have some Cazin C-C (2002) in hiding, last time I had a bottle we were amazed at the longevity, I immediately bought whatever I could get for the current vintage at the time (2018) to continue the ongoing experiment for many years into the future... You are not crazy.

Cheverny Red Blend 2020

Not sure the @Delectable Wine identification is correct because I don’t know if “Cabriole” is a different cuvée than the regular Cheverny. But close enough, I guess. This is a Pinot blend with a little Gamay, I think. Really exuberant nose has tons of ripe, lively red berry and sappy cherry fruit, limestoney minerality, and a little wet loam earthiness. High-toned and fruity in the mouth, it’s a fun drink, with zingy acids and just about zero tannin. Worked well with a chicken and artichoke casserole. — 2 years ago

Cour-Cheverny Romorantin 2015

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.

Gamay-Pinot Noir blend, or a varietal wine?

@Cristóbal Arellano Borges yes, a blend of mostly Gamay, a little it of Pinot, and a dollop of Cot (Malbec).
