Thierry Germain, Domaine Des Roches Neuves, Les Terres Chaudes 2020

Tasting Notes:

"Distinguished, shy on the first nose, still on the reserve, this cuvée shows great promise" - Thierry Germain.
With its opaque, shiny and luminous color, this 2020 vintage suggests great promise from the nose. Fruity, floral, vegetal and spicy, the success of this multifaceted wine speaks for itself. Very promising for the years to come...

The Winery:

The vineyard: terroir of limestone and flint, known as the Upper Turonian. 112 year old vines.

Domaine des Roches Neuves is organic in saumur-champigny, Thierry Germain has made a huge change in his estate and in these 22 hectares of vines that he has been working biodynamically since 2002.

He was able to work on the balance between fruit and aging in Cabernet Sauvignon using different containers. For whites, Chenin Blanc is the star. He knew how to give emotion to his wines.
