\n \"Les AOC Cheverny et Quincy\"
\n <\/a><\/p>\n
\n

Entre la Loire<\/strong> et le Cher<\/strong>, il y a un banc de terre plate, au sol sablonneux et a\u00e9r\u00e9, fertile et bois\u00e9. Cette terre est travers\u00e9e de longues routes rectilignes \u00e0 n\u2019en plus finir, ennuyeuses \u00e0 mourir pour des motards<\/strong>, mais tellement adapt\u00e9e \u00e0 la tourn\u00e9e des caves de la Vall\u00e9e de la Loire<\/strong>! C\u2019est ainsi qu\u2019entre les terrines de chasse, les feux de chemin\u00e9e et les visites moyen\u00e2geuses, je d\u00e9couvris l\u2019AOC Cheverny et l\u2019AOC Quincy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Par avance, je demande pardon \u00e0 mes amis de Nevers de ne pas avoir choisi la route du Chavignol (fromage) -> Sancerre (vin rouge) -> Pouilly (vin blanc) -> Magny-Cours (moto)<\/strong> . <\/p>\n

Mais face au Ch\u00e2teau de Chambord ou \u00e0 l\u2019enceinte m\u00e9di\u00e9val d\u2019Amboise, le Palais Ducal de Nevers ne faisait pas le poids… Ah ben oui, on n\u2019a pas tous eu L\u00e9onard de Vinci<\/strong> comme architecte !<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Apr\u00e8s le Ch\u00e2teau de Chambord<\/strong>, on fr\u00f4le celui de Cheverny. C\u2019est la b\u00e2tisse qui a servi de mod\u00e8le pour le Ch\u00e2teau de Moulinsart<\/strong> (Tintin \ud83d\ude42 et qui est repr\u00e9sent\u00e9 sur la plupart des bouteilles de Cheverny <\/strong>et Court-Cheverny.<\/strong> Seulement 35 vignerons exploitent ces deux jeunes AOC datant de 1993. Messieurs Morin p\u00e8re et fils exploitent un petit vignoble de 7ha qui s\u2019\u00e9tale tout autour de leur maison. <\/p>\n

Le Cheverny blanc<\/strong> est vin blanc sec, tr\u00e8s floral, \u00e0 base de Sauvignon. Je l\u2019ai trouv\u00e9 un peu court. Le Court-Cheverny<\/strong> est \u00e0 base de Romorantin. Il est possible d\u2019en faire une vin moelleux. Mais ce n\u2019est pas trop ma tasse de th\u00e9 non plus. Par contre; les Morin du Domaine Vadet font \u00e9galement un Cheverny rouge avec 60% de Gamay et 40% de Pinot noir<\/strong>. C\u2019est un vin rouge assez fruit\u00e9 et acidul\u00e9, l\u00e9ger et min\u00e9ral, typique des vins de Loire. Pour accompagner les plats simples et les poissons, il me pla\u00eet beaucoup, surtout \u00e0 4\u20ac la bouteille.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

En s\u2019enfon\u00e7ant dans les bois de la Sologne<\/strong>, on arrive en Champagne berrichonne<\/strong>. Tout cet ensemble naturel et pr\u00e9serv\u00e9 me rappelle les puissantes sorci\u00e8res du Berry. Entre les arbres de la for\u00eat touffue, ou juste au bord d\u2019un \u00e9tang, la biche apeur\u00e9e par les chasseurs nous m\u00e8ne vers la chaumi\u00e8re de la sorci\u00e8re<\/strong>…<\/p>\n

Nous, on a pr\u00e9f\u00e9r\u00e9 s\u2019arr\u00eater au Domaine Tatin. C\u2019est un bel endroit avec des volets verts pistache qui fait aussi maison d\u2019h\u00f4tes. L\u00e0, on y go\u00fbte le Reuilly Les Demoiselles Tatin<\/strong> et plusieurs Quincy. <\/p>\n

Cet AOC est le plus ancien de la Vall\u00e9e de la Loire (70 ans). On ne peut en trouver qu\u2019\u00e0 Quincy et \u00e0 Brinay. 100% Sauvignon, le vin est ouvert et complexe. Il laisse beaucoup de place au terroir. Ainsi, deux favoris nous ont fait de l\u2019oeil :<\/p>\n

– Quincy la Cuv\u00e9e Vin noble du domaine du Tremblay<\/strong> : s\u00fbrement le domaine le plus ancien en Sauvignon de la r\u00e9gion. Il a du corps, un nez floral et un go\u00fbt de fruits blancs, d\u2019amertume de pamplemousse et un retour un peu sal\u00e9. Forc\u00e9ment, il accompagnera sur un plateau d\u2019hu\u00eetres d\u00e8s le lendemain. (7\u20ac la bouteille)<\/p>\n

– Quincy la Cuv\u00e9e Sucellus du domaine du Tremblay<\/strong> est curieux. J\u2019aimerai savoir comment ce vin \u00e9voluerait d\u2019ici 5 ans. Issu \u00e0 100% de vieilles vignes, ferment\u00e9 en barrique neuve du Cher, il a un retour tr\u00e8s prononc\u00e9 de noix de muscade, une longueur en bouche sal\u00e9 et sucr\u00e9 comme un abricot r\u00f4ti. Il s\u2019agit l\u00e0 d\u2019une belle d\u00e9couverte. (13 ou 15\u20ac la bouteille, je ne sais plus, c\u2019est un coup de coeur !)<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Between the Loire river <\/strong>and Cher river<\/strong>, there is a piece of flat land, the soil is sandy and aerated, fertile and forested. This land is crossed by long straight roads to no end, boring to die for bikers<\/strong>, but so adapted to the tour of the cellars of the Loire Valley<\/strong>! Thus, between terrines, chimney fires and medieval visits, I discovered the AOC Cheverny and AOC Quincy<\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>\n

In advance, I apologize to my friends from Nevers not have chosen the journey : Chavignol (cheese) -> Sancerre (wine red) -> Pouilly (white wine) -> Magny-Cours (motorcycle)<\/strong>. But versus the Chateau de Chambord or medieval enclusure of Amboise, the Ducal Palace of Nevers could not fight … Oh yeah, we did not all have an architect named Leonardo de Vince<\/strong>!<\/em><\/p>\n

After the Ch\u00e2teau de Chambord<\/strong>, we saw Cheverny that it borders. This is the building that served as a model for Moulinsart Castle<\/strong> (Tintin \ud83d\ude42 and that is represented on most bottles of Cheverny and Court-Cheverny. Only 35 wine growers these have made thoose two young AOC from 1993. Mrs Morin father and son operate a small 7ha vineyard which spreads around their house.<\/em><\/p>\n

The AOC Cheverny white<\/strong> is a dry white wine, very floral, based on Sauvignon. I found it a bit short. The Court-Cheverny<\/strong> is based on Romorantin. It is possible to make a sweet wine. But it is not my cup of tea either. For cons, the Domain Vadet of Mr Morin has a Cheverny red with 60% Gamay and 40% Pinot Noir<\/strong>. This is a rather fruity red wine, tangy, light and mineral, typical of the Loire Valley's wine. To accompany simple dishes and fish, I like it a lot, especially for 4\u20ac a bottle.<\/em><\/p>\n

By penetrating into the Sologne forest<\/strong>, we arrived at Champagne Berry. This whole natural and preserved place remembered me the powerful Berry's witches. Among the trees of the dense forest, or just at the edge of a pond, the doe frightened by hunters leads us to the hut of the witch<\/strong> …<\/em><\/p>\n

We chose to stop at Domaine Tatin. It is a beautiful place with green pistachio shutters. There, we tasted the Les Demoiselles Tatin Reuilly<\/strong> and several Quincy. This Quincy AOC is the oldest of the Loire Valley (70 years). We can only find that AOC in Quincy and Brinay. 100% Sauvignon, the wine is open and complex. It leaves plenty of place to the terroir. Thus, we have two favorites :<\/em><\/p>\n

– Quincy Cuv\u00e9e Noble wine, Tremblay domain<\/strong>: surely the oldest Sauvignon<\/em> area in the region. It is fullbody, a floral nose and taste of white fruits, bitter of grapefruit and return a little salty. Necessarily it will accompany a platter of oysters on the morrow. (7 \u20ac per bottle)<\/em><\/p>\n

– Quincy Cuv\u00e9e Sucellus (Tremblay domain too)<\/strong> is curious. I would like to know how this wine will evolve in the next 5 years. From 100% old vines, fermented in new barrels from Cher region's forest, it has a very strong return of nutmeg, a length in the mouth like a sweet and salty roasted apricot. This is a wonderful discovery. (13 or \u20ac 15 a bottle, I do not know, this is a favorite!)<\/em><\/p>\n
