Producer Domaine des Roches-Neuves

FRANCE, LOIRE

Domaine des Roches-Neuves is located in Varrains, a small village not far from Saumor, in the center of the Loire. Its foundation dates back to 1850 and is now being carried out by Thierry and Philippe Germain who acquired the Domaine in 1993 after searching for parcels from France to Hungary. Domaine des Roches-Neuves is made up of 22 hectares of vineyards, all cultivated under biodynamic conditions, which are found on chalky and tuffy soils. Cultivated vineyards are all indigenous to the Loire as the Chnin Blanc, which perhaps reaches the maximum expression, and the Cabernet Franc. Over the last few years, Thierry has been trying to reduce the alcoholic strength of its wines and to sharpen them as little as possible in wood to get the fruit out, and the result of much work in the glass. Thierry's wines are mineral and elegant, deep and long. Try the "Insolite" Chenin Blanc base and refine the wood.
