Cour-Cheverny|White wine

3.6/5 (13 customers)

This Cour-Cheverny is a superb, well-balanced dry wine that fully expresses the richness and distinctive character of the Romorantin grape from which it is made. It offers a deep, complex nose of thyme and rhubarb, with a distinct mineral quality, followed by a crisp, fresh, and powerful attack on the palate, citrus notes, and a balanced finish with great length. A beautiful vintage!

About the estate:

With the departure of Italian Laura Semeria, a new chapter is beginning at the Montcy estate. [...] A family of investors from Orléans will steer the future of this biodynamically farmed property in Cheverny. The wines presented retain an authentic richness and aroma, without any pretension.
