The 2023 vintage in Cheverny is simply divine. Benefiting from favorable weather conditions—plenty of sunshine and moderate temperatures—grapes reached optimal ripeness. Early-harvested Sauvignons show striking aromatic intensity, with notes of citrus, blackcurrant bud, and a finely chiseled minerality, true to the appellation’s terroir. Despite varied ripeness across plots, meticulous selection ensured the production of white wines marked by precision and expressiveness. On the palate, the balance is remarkable: vibrant acidity underscores a ripe, elegant texture, hinting at great aging potential. Compared to other Loire appellations producing dry whites, Cheverny 2023 stands out with its crystalline freshness and purity of expression. Scoring 4.4 out of 5, this vintage embodies the excellence of the region and will delight both lovers of youthful whites and fans of cellaring-worthy wines.
