Domaine des Roches Neuves Thierry Germain Saumur-Champigny La Marginale Red 2011 Magnum

64.50 € Tax included

This Saumur-Champigny cuvée La Marginale only sees the light of day in the great vintages. In the 2011 vintage, it is a very beautiful wine that offers an intense ruby colour with reflections of purple and cherry and on the nose, powerful aromas of red and black fruits followed by notes of menthol, red fruit liqueur and star anise. On the palate, the attack is straight and powerful, the tannins are well present and round with a long finish.

At the head of the Domaine des Roches Neuves, Thierry Germain has undertaken a formidable work on the terroir to produce exceptional wines in biodynamics since 1995.
