More about 2020 Domaine Maison Cheverny Rouge Domaine Maison's Cheverny Rouge climbed to our #4 spot on our Top-Ten Value list with its intensely delicious nature that brings a smile to my face each time I taste it. The wine's delightful combination of bright fruit, fresh floral character, and soft tannins draw you in like a magnet, tickling your senses and offering remarkable quality seldom achieved at this value price. Domaine Maison is in the heart of the Loire Valley in the Touraine region sandwiched between the Loire and the Cher rivers, benefiting from moderated climatic conditions protecting the vines from frost and excessive heat. The vineyards consist of 20 - 45-year-old vines planted on clay-limestone and slightly gravelly soils, maintained to decrease yields and heighten the overall quality of the fruit. The grapes are fermented in stainless steel vessels preserving the fruit's energetic vibrance and encouraging a style of wine ready to drink immediately and even slightly chilled. This Pinot Noir and Gamay blend with a splash of Malbec, locally known as Côt, is a remarkable value and a rare find with a fresh floral character, bright red fruits, and gentle tannins. We introduced the previous vintage last Fall, and it rapidly developed devotees in and around Yountville due to its incredible quality, delicious nature, and unbeatable value.
