Roger Manceaux Grande Reserve

Roger Manceaux is five generations in the industry and exists because Roger did well in his school exams – the story goes that Roger was offered a plot of land or a bicycle if he did well at school. With great insight, Roger Manceaux now owns a total of 12ha dotted across different Premier and Grand Cru Villages. The magic of Roger Manceaux is the ability to produce many different styles and flavours from the different grapes and terroirs.

Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier: Complex and richly textured bouquet. Aromas of toasty autolysis, apple, white peach and strawberry. A chalk and seashell scent adds mineral and intrigue. Weighty, crisp and fruity with flavours of white fleshed tree and stone fruits, pith and citrus peel moments. The mousse is fine and precise carrying flavour as well as a silken texture, a seashell note returns as the mousse dies away. Delicious, complex, fresh, salivating and dry, a lovely wine with finesse, charm, weighty and integrity. Best drinking from 2022 through 2028. 95 Points (= “OUTSTANDING”) Nov 2021
