Roches Neuves Saumur Blanc Clos Romans 2022 priory-ridge created in 1950Biodynamic. This tiny vineyard also deserves status as one of Saumurs Grand Crus, and its certainly the most enchanting of Germains sites to visit. The Chenin vines are rooted in the walled enclave of a priory dating back to the 11th century. Planted on the limestone ridge above Parnay just outside Saumur, the roots burrow down through the white rock (Senonian era bedrock called Pierres de Champigny) towards the famous Maisons Troglodytes below.
