This Cheverny from Domaine de Montcy is a fresh, cheerful organic dry white made from Sauvignon and Chardonnay grapes. Ideal as an aperitif or with seafood.
The Domaine de Montcy was established in the 1990s from vineyards that once belonged to Château de Troussay. Today, the estate—owned by the Chevrier family—covers about thirty hectares spread across the communes of Cheverny, Cormeray, Chitenay, and Celettes, all of which fall entirely within the Cheverny and Cour-Cheverny appellations. The grape varieties are balanced between reds (Pinot Noir, Gamay, Malbec) and whites (Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Romorantin), notably including very old Sauvignon Blanc vines.
The estate has been certified organic since 2012 and Demeter biodynamic since 2015—a demanding approach that is rare in this Loire Valley appellation. Vincent Hayer, who managed the estate’s operations for nearly twenty years, became its director in 2020. Under his leadership, the wines retain an authenticity of texture and aroma, without pretension, fully respecting the identity of each grape variety.
The Ligère cuvée, a blend of Sauvignon (the majority) and Chardonnay, embodies this philosophy—a vibrant and fresh white wine that epitomizes the estate’s expertise.

CloseThe "Clos de la Févrie" from the domaine de la Haute Févrie is a cuvée made from very old vines planted on the estate's best terroirs. The oldest vines were planted in 1922 on the Coteaux de la Sèvre. This is a Muscadet Sèvre et Maine sur lie with a very powerful, generous body, extravert in flavor. The finish with lovely ripe bitters and praline nuances is particularly promising.
