Domaine des Roches Neuves, Saumur Blanc 'Clos Romans' 2023 South Africa A beautiful expression of AligotéPlace: Loire, France Grape: Chenin Blanc Vibe: Classic, textural The vines here are planted within a clos (walled vineyard) that dates back to the 11th century. Germain has been steadily replanting the site with massale selected vines at high densities. Incredibly saline and linear. A stupid amount of pent up energy cuts things to shreds here. Impeccable. ABV: 12. 5%
