Clos Romans Saumur Chenin Blanc 2009

If you ever thought how can a cremant made from Chenin Blanc have the acidity and subtle fruit make a wonderful sparkler. Try this one on. I loved how clean and crisp this came across. — 2 months ago

Did you really drink this at a car wash?@Doug Powers

@Peter Sultan, of course not, but Delectable (like UnTappd, the beer app I also use) has very limited “venue” apps, so, like my buddy @Severn Goodwin, who once checked in a wine at a Canadian toll booth, we all look for funny venues!! On UnTappd, I was able to create a custom venue that I use, but have never figured out how to do so on Delectable?!?!

Oh shoot, I was really starting to enjoy the image of Delectable-ites toasting with their Chinon while watching as their car gets scrubbed. All kidding aside, there was a shift on Delectable several years back I noticed when it became impossible to locate myself ( though w restaurants it works well); apparently my closest drinking venue is the synagogue across the street!@Doug Powers

Great fruit. Dark blackberries. Great spice. Elegant licorice.

Lovely silkiness for a wine of this density.

Needs air to show its stuff. — 6 months ago

Franc de Pied Saumur-Champigny Cabernet Franc 2017

9.3

Beautiful. From legendary Thierry Germain. Ungrafted rootstocks planted on sandy topsoil. 12,5% abv. Dense yet weightless. Like ballerina performing a physically demanding solo yet evoking a sense of lightness and grace on the edge of your tongue. High acidity, soft chalky-type (drying) tannins, but juicy. — 6 months ago
