Domaine de la Taille aux Loups
Remus Montlouis-sur-Loire Chenin Blanc
Again amazing white after 3 vintages to taste. Less burgundy i would say, more nuts, layers and complexity. Take the wide glasses for sure. This wine is to think about but not to drink during your ordinary evening (if you don't used to it). Enjoy and feel this wine

Jun 3rd, 2022Rich and orange colored. Hay. Ripe notes of quince and pear, yellow apple, honeydew melon. Sweet bun, a little green plantain on the palate. Touch of sweetness and oak. Almost chewy. Not high acid.

Mar 12th, 2021Crisp, nutty, citrusy and very layered. I want to drink this many more times in my life.

Jul 1st, 2018Honey, nuts, pear, hay, sage, apple, buttery brioche, piercing acidity. Flint and clay over chalk subsoil. “Rémus is made from a second, slightly later harvest through Clos de Mosny, from 50- to 80-year-old vines. Spontaneous fermentation takes place in barrels in his cool underground cellar (which has an ambient temperature of about 12 °C/54 °F) with absolutely no intervention, so fermentation is very slow, taking anything from four to nine months. The wine doesn’t undergo malolactic conversion (Jacky believes that malic acid gives the wines a spine), there is no bâtonnage and no added sulphites during élevage. It then spends 12 months in new (about 10%), one-, two- and three-year-old barrels.” I figure oaky Chenins are growing on me...

2 people found it helpfulDec 19th, 2020Вечер в компании прекрасного вина Remus. Великолепно сделанный шенен блан, который профи в слепой дегустации отнесли в бургундский Кот д'Ор. Плотное и обвалакивающее вино с тонами орехов, выпечки и косточковых фруктов. Во вкусе сильная кислотность и яркие сладкие ноты меда. Возраст лоз 50-80 лет. Великолепное вино, с которым хочется провести как можно больше времени. Обязательно к дегустации.

Nevertheless, this wine is delicious with layers to examine if you wish.

The nose would fool as it would be a Chardonnay but second notes bring botyrtis and other aroma and flavor..

Dec 31st, 2016Showing more flash right now, needs some time for the oak to integrate. The quality fruit though is there for the long haul. Delicious with Cavatelli w/ crab beurre monté
