The wines of this appellation

the reds are lively, clean, fruity, light quaffing wines. Red and black fruit, blackcurrant and liquorice aromas are present. The whites, with their pale hue, are dry, lively and fresh with fragrances of hazelnut and honey. The rosés are supple and fresh. They display a salmon-pink colour and exude spicy, occasionally toasted notes. Cheverny wines are well suited to grilled veal, roast poultry, cheeses (reds), fish and shellfish (whites). The rosés are equally suitable as appetisers or with barbecues.
