This Cheverny is a supple, silky red with a light ruby color and a fragrant nose of Morello cherry fruit. Supple, silky and fresh on the palate, it highlights the terroir and all its elegance. The tannins support the fruit and give a long, persistent finish. Freshness and roundness are the hallmarks of this highly successful cuvée. Enjoy it with friends and charcuterie!

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Rated 14/20 (Vintage 2017) (Good wine)
Domaine rated 2*Stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more regular and homogeneous than the previous one)
Guide Hachette des vins

About the domain :
Vincent Hayer, the estate's operations manager for almost 20 years, became the manager of the property in 2020, a former Château de Troussay clos, converted to organic since 2012 and biodynamic since 2015. Owned by the highly committed Chevrier family, the estate comprises 30 ha divided between Cour-Cheverny and Cheverny, with very old Sauvignon vines in particular.

Let's watch the transition...
