    Dominated by Pinot Noir, this is a tight and stalky wine. It is almost too light, with its acidity and tight tannins to the front. Probably as it softens it will round out, so wait until late 2016 to drink.

    The magnificent chateau of Cheverny is a fitting focal point for the wines of this small appellation. This wine is light in color, young and fruity. Soft tannins and red berry fruits are rounded and easy to drink. The wine is ready to enjoy although it could age through 2017.
