Domaine de L'R Les Mains 2022
Domaine de L’R “Les Mains” 2022 is a profound expression of Chinon — a wine where power meets precision. Crafted by Frédéric Sigonneau from old-vine Cabernet Franc, organically farmed and vinified with minimal intervention, it reflects both the man and the soil (“Les Mains” meaning the hands). Aged partly in old barrels, it achieves perfect harmony between ripe fruit, floral lift, and the earthy minerality of the Loire. This is Chinon at its most soulful and tactile.
“Les Mains” 2022 pairs beautifully with dishes that mirror its depth and finesse. Enjoy it with duck breast in red wine sauce, grilled lamb chops with rosemary, or beef tenderloin with mushrooms. Its freshness also enhances truffle risotto, lentil stew with herbs, or roasted root vegetables with thyme. For cheese, opt for aged goat cheeses, Comté, or Tomme de Savoie. Decant for 45–60 minutes before serving at 16–17°C to let its texture and aromatics fully unfold — a wine that rewards both contemplation and company.
