Domaine des Roches Neuves, Saumur-Champigny 'Roche' 2023

Place: Loire, France

Grape: Cabernet Franc

Vibe: Classic, Lighter

This is a goodie. Cabernet Franc at its best. Thierry Germain knows a thing or two about producing delicious wine, made abundantly clear here. Blue-fruited, herbal, peppery. It's got that pencil shaving thing going on too. High quality. It's drinking exceptionally well now. Like literally right now, I've a glass on the go as I write this. ABV: 13.5%
