Le Rocher des Violettes is a magnificent 17-hectare wine estate located in the Montlouis PDO. Xavier Weisskopf created Le Rocher des Violettes in 2005 when he took over 7ha of old Chenin vines in Montlouis sur Loire AOC and century-old Côt vines in Touraine AOC. He was joined in 2010 by his wife, Clémence, to help with the administrative and commercial side of the business. Domaine Le Rocher des Violettes has been organically farmed since 2008.

The cuvée Sans Bois Ni Loi 2023 rouge from domaine Julien Auroux is a beautiful organic Bergerac 100% merlot! This gourmet wine is gourmand, with notes of black fruits and spices. A merlot with character that is not marked by wood, bravo!
CloseLes Pierres Girards du domaine de la Bergerie is a cuvée made from 50-year-old Chenin vines. This organic white Anjou develops notes of ripe fruit (peach, apricot) and citrus... On the palate, the suppleness brought by the clay and the liveliness balance each other out. Very good length for this gastronomic wine.
Perfectly balanced, with a long finish.
CloseThe Bourgogne blanc Côtes d'Auxerre du domaine Goisot is a dry, mineral and fruity white, typified by its fresh terroir. An elegant white.
CloseA fresh and digestible 2023 vintage for this Saint-Nicolas de Bourgueil from Domaine de Rochouard: fruit and suppleness!
CloseA superb Chardonnay de Loire produced by the Rocher des Violettes and aged for 7 months in truncated-conical oak vats. An organic wine admirably vinified and matured by Xavier Weisskopf that restores this grape variety to its former glory, while keeping the price down!
CloseThe grand Clos du Rocher des Violettes is made from the estate's 80+ year-old vines; this grand Montlouis is full-bodied and luscious, spiked with a framework of freshness and candied citrus notes that carry it a long way. A great gastronomic white.
