Cour-Cheverny is the only appellation in the world where Romorantin, a forgotten noble grape dating to the 16th century, can be grown for AOC wine. Philippe Tessier is its finest ambassador, farming old vines that produce wines of startling complexity. Expect quince, white flowers, beeswax, and an almost waxy texture that distinguishes this variety from any Chenin or Sauvignon. The acidity is electric, the finish persistent. This is wine as living history—a direct link to Renaissance France. Pair with Loire Valley goat cheeses or enjoy as a conversation-starting aperitif.

More about Domaine Philippe Tessier

Founded in 1961 by Roger Tessier, now run by his son Philippe, this 23-hectare Cheverny estate sits in a microclimate between the Loire and the forest—cool-growing conditions that push acidity and complexity. Certified organic since 1998, these wines pull Chenin Blanc and reds from terroir that tastes like a place. Philippe believes wine should reflect the season and the man; these wines clearly do. Zev Rovine Selections brings them to America.

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Oysters, grilled sole, crab cakes, fresh seafood pasta, goat cheese and herb salad

Citrus, stone fruit, and herbal notes with saline minerality, medium-bodied with crisp acidity and a dry finish. The wine displays clean fruit character and mineral tension that makes it refreshingly balanced.

Loire Valley Wines

The Loire Valley is France’s greatest source of value for anyone looking for elegant, terroir-driven wines. Our collection celebrates the region’s great diversity, with the mineral-driven whites of Muscadet and Sancerre, the beautiful Chenin Blancs and Cabernet Francs from villages like Vouvray and Chinon, and natural wines from everywhere in the region. Sometimes wonderfully fresh and gulpable, sometimes serious and age-worthy, the prices are always very reasonable.
