Why shop with us?
Saumur Terres 2022 from Domaine des Roches Neuves is a refined Loire white that reflects the estate’s focus on precision, purity, and terroir expression. Sourced from one of the Loire Valley’s most respected names, it offers a polished, mineral-driven style that appeals to drinkers looking for elegance rather than excess.
Tasting Notes
Pale and luminous in the glass, this wine typically shows a fresh, clean profile with delicate citrus, orchard fruit, and subtle floral notes. Beneath that lift, expect a chalky, stony character that brings definition and tension to the wine.
On the palate, it is crisp and finely textured, with lively acidity and a dry, precise finish that underscores its mineral core. While approachable on release, the wine should also reward short-term cellaring, gaining a little more breadth and complexity over the next few years.
Production
Produced in the Loire, Saumur Terres benefits from the region’s cool climate and the estate’s terroir-focused approach. Domaine des Roches Neuves is known for working with careful vineyard selection and gentle cellar methods to preserve freshness and transparency, allowing the character of the site and vintage to come through clearly.
Food & Serving
This wine is a natural match for shellfish, oysters, grilled white fish, goat cheese, and light poultry dishes. Serve chilled, ideally around 8–10°C, and decanting is generally not necessary unless you want to open it up shortly before serving.
Producer
Domaine des Roches Neuves is a benchmark producer in Saumur, with a reputation built on biodynamic farming and exacting vineyard work. Under Thierry Germain, the estate has become one of the Loire’s most admired domaines, especially for wines that combine energy, depth, and a strong sense of place.
