Domaine Des Roches Neuves Franc De Pied Saumur Champigny 2022 (750ml)
Franc de Pied comes from ungrafted Cabernet Franc vines planted in deep sandy soils, which naturally limits vigor and brings a different kind of expression to the wine. The vineyard is planted at very high density—about 10,000 vines per hectare—and worked by horse due to the tight spacing.
The 2022 is fermented in oval vats with a short 8 to 10 day maceration to preserve freshness and aromatic detail. Depending on the vintage, some whole cluster is included.
The profile leans bright and lifted. Red berries, floral notes, and a crisp, juicy core define the wine, with acidity that gives it shape and length without adding weight. Tannins stay light and fine, keeping everything focused on purity of fruit.
This is one of the more immediate, energetic expressions in the Roches Neuves lineup.
Works especially well with tartare, grilled meats, or simple preparations where the freshness of the wine can carry the pairing.
