Domaine de Montcy

Cour-Cheverny Romorantin 2015

Medium gold; very aromatic with stone fruit and apple (almost riesling); acid driven and relatively hot (13.5%) with light bitterness; very refreshing, and a bargain! Really faded day 2 — 7 years ago

Domaine de la Désoucherie

Soléa Christian & Fabien Tessier Romorantin 2010

Domaine de la Désoucherie 2010 Cuvee Soléa Christian & Fabien Tessier / an unusual ' moelleux ' from that curious grape Romorantin. Excellent balance, seems a shy bouquet with honey, a lot of refinement. Will become more and more interesting over the years, while it is exquisite now! A wine with tension. And pleasant bitterness at the end. #romorantin #moelleux #courcheverny #loveit #loire — 8 years ago

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. — 7 years ago

Vin de Pays de la Loire Romorantin

Wow. I'm not often surprised by a wine, but this is a revelation. Made from a fairly obscure white grape from the Loire, this is made in the "natural" style (e.g., no innoculation of cultured yeast, etc.). This exhibits a singularly unique flavor profile that I can only equate with a hypothetical blend of an aged ribolla gialla and a roussanne. Terrific! — 9 years ago

One of the better Cour-Cheverny wines I've tasted: a statement that says everything but also nothing. Less unpleasantly oxidative than Daridan, more interesting than de Montcy and Cazin and at much frendlier price than Henri Marionnet. For the money I think this is the best that's out there-- Golden apple skin, celery, tarragon. — 9 years ago

There was a library release of Renaissances a few years ago, including '95s and '96es. If you can get your hands on them, they are sensational wines. In their youth they can be a little cloying though, I agree.

I'll definitely have to seek those out. Sounds spectacular.

Within the last year or so, I saw them at Nice Matin and Bathazar for under $100. Not exactly the sort of thing that flies off a shelf.
