Philippe Tessier 'Cheverny Rouge' 2021 Loire Valley, France

Pinot Noir, Gamay, Malbec (AKA Côt)

Loire Valley, France

Philippe and now Simon Tessier are making some of the most delicious Cheverny rouge, a blend from Pinot and Gamay, with a touch of spicy Côt. Fruitier and juicier than Burgundian Passe-tout-grain - probable because of the terroirs, and maybe the clones used - this type of wine is really perfect to enjoy all the time. This specific bottling comes from the youngest vines of the estate, and the vines planted on sandy clay.
