Tue-Boeuf 2022 Vin de France Romorantin Frileuse

The rare and superb Romorantin from Tue-Boeuf is approximately 15% from 115 year-old vines and 35% from 50 year-old franc de pied vines, with 50% from a new vineyard planted by the Clos in 2018, on clay/silex soils, aged 12 months in Burgundy barrels, about 15 mg/l SO2. The 2022 is a dense and earthy Romorantin that will age beautifully - we've tasted 50 year-old Romo in the cellar at Clos Roche Blanche and we suspect this wine will go on forever as well. If drinking now please decant well in advance to bring out the stone fruits, almond, mineral and anise flavors. Intense and beautiful wine. -David Lillie
