Domaine des Roches Neuves Terres Chaudes - Saumur-Champigny - Red - 2017 :

 

Thierry Germain's Biodynamic Cabernet Franc Masterpiece

The DOMAINE DES ROCHES NEUVES SAUMUR CHAMPIGNY TERRES CHAUDES RED is a premium, biodynamic Cabernet Franc from the heart of the Loire Valley. Crafted by the visionary Thierry Germain, this wine perfectly captures the elegance and depth achievable on the region's famous Tuffeau (chalky limestone) soils, delivering a wine of soulful finesse.

Tasting Notes

• Colour: A deep, luminous ruby.
• Nose: An aromatic tapestry of red and black berries (cassis, cherry, raspberry), subtle floral hints of violet, and a whisper of sweet spice (clove, pepper).
• Palate: Full-bodied yet elegant, with a generous, thickly textured mouthfeel. The signature freshness of Loire Cabernet Franc provides a lively balance to the ripe fruit, culminating in a long, pure, mineral-driven finish.

Food Pairing & Service

For an elevated experience, serve this wine slightly chilled at 15-16°C. It's built for classic British Sunday roasts and game dishes.

• Suggested Pairings: Traditional Roast Leg of Lamb with rosemary and garlic, Venison Casserole, Mature Cheddar or Goat's Cheese.
