Saumur Champigny Les Memoires, Roches Neuves

Note:

From vines planted in 1904 that sit on both flint and limestone, which is a rare combination in Saumur Champigny, the 2019 Les Memoires is all purity of coulis like fruit. It offers incredible concentration yet floats in the mouth like a weightless cloud. If there were a Cabernet Franc equivalent of Chambolle-Musigny, this would be it. I love it. The finest of chalky tannins are just present on the finish, as if to remind you this is a red wine
