Domaine des Roches Neuves Terres Chaudes – Saumur-Champigny – Red – 2021:
The Ultimate Expression of Loire Valley Cabernet Franc
The DOMAINE DES ROCHES NEUVES SAUMUR CHAMPIGNY TERRES CHAUDES RED is a flagship cuvée from Thierry Germain, a leading figure in biodynamic viticulture in the Loire Valley. This wine is the pure and profound expression of Cabernet Franc, drawing its strength from the clay-limestone Tuffeau soils of the Saumur-Champigny appellation.
Tasting Notes
- Color: An intense and bright ruby hue.
- Nose: A highly aromatic bouquet, dominated by red and black fruits (blackcurrant, raspberry, blackberry), evolving towards floral touches of violet and gentle spice notes (pepper, clove).
- Palate: Generous and finely textured. The attack is fresh, revealing a beautiful acidity that balances the fruit’s richness. The finish is long, elegant, and marked by the finesse of the Tuffeau terroir.
Pairing & Serving
This luxury wine, both approachable in its youth and possessing great aging potential, should be served at 59-61°F (15-16°C) after a brief decanting to reveal its full complexity. It’s a must-have for any serious collector.
- Suggested Pairings: Grilled Tri-Tip Summer Salad, Korean BBQ Pork Tenderloin, Pan-Seared Duck Breast with Cherry Sauce.
