OUR WINES

 

Our wines express the very best of local terroir, bringing you moments of joy to share with friends and family.

Our wild-fermented wine uses native yeast (natural yeast from the grapes) and the vines are vinified seperately, some in tanks and some in oak barrels.

Our aim is to produce wines that offer fruity notes with pleasant mineral aromas and a powerful aftertaste, that caracterise our AOC labels.

Each year, the Domaine and the winemaking team devote their time, energy and money on improving the quality of our wines. This passion has lead them to produce a number of award-winning wines and be referenced in the “Guide Hachette des Vins”.

We produce wines that are designated “AOC Cheverny”, “AOC Cour-Cheverny” and “Vins de France”.
