Tasting notes

This wine offers an intense ruby-red robe, dense and concentrated. The nose reveals subtle minty nuances, red berry liqueur, and forest strawberries. The attack is straightforward and strong in the mouth, with a sensuality that immediately suggests the full potential of a great terroir. A somewhat complex wine, both powerful and subtle, revealing great mineral purity in the finish.

About this wine

Domaine des Roches Neuves, under the direction of renowned winemaker Thierry Germain, produces distinctive red wines from the Loire Valley's Saumur appellation. Les Mémoires showcases the region's signature Cabernet Franc grape, delivering a full-bodied wine with mineral precision and concentrated red fruit character. Germain's philosophy emphasizes terroir expression and sustainable viticulture, allowing the unique slate and limestone soils of Saumur to shape the wine's powerful profile and elegant structure.

This Cabernet Franc red pairs beautifully with beef, lamb, and game birds, while its mineral backbone complements mushroom and truffle-based dishes. The wine's concentration and balance also make it an excellent match for grilled meats and aged hard cheeses. At 13.5% ABV, Les Mémoires offers refined complexity suitable for discerning palates seeking authentic Loire Valley character for fine dining, cellar collections, and special occasions.
