Philippe Tessier Cheverny Blanc Loire 2018
SKU
5308
The commune of Cheverny in the Loire can produce wines of piercing acidity, but sometimes there is a vintage where the fruit shines. 2018 was a vintage of near perfect growing conditions with high yields, great concentration, and lower than usual acidity. The addition of 30% Chardonnay in Tessier also makes this a wine with flavors of tangerine, melons, green banana, toasty almond meringue, stone fruits and tropical fruits. Very outgoing Cheverny.
