ABOUT THIS WINE
This expression of Cheverny Blanc is a mixture of Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Orbois, spontaneously fermented in stainless steel with indigenous yeasts.
Domaine Tessier was founded in 1961 by Roger Tessier within Cheverny in the Loire. The vines are all organically farmed, and the estate has a cooler microclimate. The vines are 20 years of age and thrive on a mixture of sand and clay soils. This wine was unfiltered and unfined prior to being bottled.ABOUT THIS PRODUCER
On the southern banks of the Loire River in the appellation of Cheverny, Philippe Tessier farms 23 hectares of vines utilizing organic principles. Perhaps more importantly, however, Philippe strives to make honest wines that respect the natural balance of his vines and the local ecosystem of the Loire Valley. He harvests by hand, utilizes neutral oak and native yeast and nominally filters. His overriding goal is for his wines to reflect not the hand of the winemaker, but rather the original character of the vine, soil and vintage.
