"As I have written before, this fine 10-hectare Domaine located in and around Chaintré deserves to be better known. Synthetic herbicides are rejected in favor of working the soils, and the Cornins practice biodynamic methods in a sector where such conscientiousness is far from the norm. The harvest is by hand, with fermentation in stainless steel followed by élevage in used barrels and demi-muids for the lieu-dit bottlings. Many of the Domaine's vines are very old — fully a century old in the case of Les Serreudières. The result is fleshy but succulent wines that deliver immense pleasure on release but which are balanced to mature gracefully in the cellar.

This is a serious estate, and Romain Cornin's commitment to his vineyards is just as evident as his diligence in the cuverie and cellar."
William Kelley, Wine Advocate
“Dominique Cornin withdrew from the co-operative in 1993 and has since become one of Chaintré’s finest wineries. Really, it’s since his son Romain has taken charge that it has come on leaps and bounds …. Readers should check out his wonderful Pouilly-Fuissé Les Plessys and demi-muid-raised Les Chevrières, the latter the one I might cellar for a few years.”
Neal Martin, Vinous
DOMINIQUE CORNIN
POUILLY-FUISSÉ 1ER CRU LES CHEVRIÈRES 2020
"The 2020 Pouilly-Fuissé Les Chevrières 1er Cru is the only cuvée that received promotion in this vintage. Raised exclusively in demi-muids, it has a beautifully-defined bouquet with refined orange pith, quince, saffron and light honeysuckle scents. The palate is well-balanced with crisp acidity, very cohesive with good weight, bitter lemon and orange rind towards the persistent finish. Great potential."
