Cour De Mandelotte

Domaine de Montcy

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!! — 10 days 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.

Just the right amount of acidity. Vibrant and fruity. Uncle Dan likes it better than the older La Roquète. — 6 months ago
