Thierry Germain Saumur Champigny Clos de l'Echelier 2020

A thoroughbred of a Cabernet Franc, the Échelier—named after a walled-in clos of terraces that is "ladder"-like—is Burgundian in style. Fine, with bright acid, sleek silkiness, and great length, it is the most elegant of all of Thierry’s red wines. Drink it and age it as you would a fine Pinot Noir from Burgundy.
