DOMAINE DE LÉRY WINES
OUR VINES
Our vines are on average 20 years old, some older and others recently replanted. The entire estate rests on a thick layer of Beauce limestone, covered on the one hand by clay-siliceous soil, and on the other hand by sandy-rocky soil with a tendency to loam at times. The first type of soil is mainly occupied by the red grape varieties Pinot noir, Gamay on a vast plateau, the second being favored by the white grape variety (Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Romorantin) on a north-west facing hillside.
The vinifications with temperature control are carried out in stainless steel tanks. At the end, the blends are chosen according to the taste qualities of each cuvée and the orientations of the appellation.
AOC CHEVERNY WHITE
80% Sauvignon, 20% Chardonnay, 12.5°
The liveliness and fruitiness of Sauvignon combined with the texture of Chardonnay.
This straw-yellow wine expresses a nose of citrus and exotic fruits with a hint of boxwood and white flowers. On the palate, grapefruit and passion fruit are enhanced by a nice acidity, and the chardonnay brings a little substance to the finish.
It is a very pleasant wine for an aperitif. It goes perfectly with seafood or fish, as well as a salad on the terrace. To be served at 8-10°C.
AOC CHEVERNY RED
80% Pinot Noir, 20% Gamay, 12.5°
The structure of Pinot Noir and the delicacy of Gamay.
