Wafting with scents of chamomile, boiled nettle, wet pebbles, marzipan, and yellow fruits, it's herbal, mineral and almost full-bodied. The aftertaste is long and a bit bitter. Demanding style yet not in a good way.

2020. I believe this is my first Romorantin based wine, so I read through the tasting notes here and was excited to try it. Rich orchard fruit, good acid, and definitely get the oxidized sherry-like notes some mentioned. Paired with snacks while watching the Masters. Not quite their Pimento Cheese Sandwich, but my goat cheese stuffed roasted red peppers and black olives went great with the wine! — 4 days ago
