2019 Domaine des Roches Neuves Saumur Blanc L'Echelier, France, Loire Valley, Wine Review
This is 100% Chenin Blanc from 70 year old vines in the Loire Valley. Light golden in color, clear and bright. The nose has loads of minerality with a touch of lemon peel. Slightly viscous texture. Concentrated. Lots of energy. On the palate, this is clean and tasty with a lot of minerality. Slight lemon note. Long finish. This is very young but drinking well. It should continue to drink well for another ten to fifteen years (at least). A great match for grilled trout or other sea food. This is expensive so shop around for pricing.
