The 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.

Le Rocher des Violettes is a magnificent 17-hectare wine estate located in the Montlouis PDO. Xavier Weisskopf created Domaine Le Rocher des Violettes in 2005 by taking 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.

Grand Jas du Château Rousset is a superb red from Provence. In 2016, the estate produced a silky, fragrant organic wine with notes of undergrowth, tobacco and licorice. A wine to drink over 5 to 7 years.
CloseGreat success for this Vacqueras from Domaine d'Ouréa. It's already very expressive in its youth, on black fruits resting on silky tannins. An organic wine full of energy! Guide des meilleurs vins de France 2023 : 92-93/100
CloseLe trou de l'Ermite du Château de Caraguilhes possesses a dense nose marked by beautiful fruit full of freshness. It develops on deep notes of blackberry and licorice, followed by rosemary and thyme. The palate is round and full-bodied, underlined by dark berry aromas and hints of black tapenade. The freshness of the mid-palate gives the wine real personality. The power is there with its gentle Mediterranean character.Jancis Robinson : 16.50/20
CloseThe Cuvée Paul from domaine des Homs is a red-fruit-dominated Minervois that can be enjoyed decanted in its second year. You can also forget it in your cellar and enjoy it for a few years. Made from Syrah and a little Grenache, this organic wine develops notes of black fruit and spices, with good concentration and freshness. Great value for money!
CloseTouche Mitaine du Rocher des Violettes is a fresh, mineral Montlouis from the youngest vines at Rocher des Violettes. A nervy Chenin to drink young or cellar for 4-5 years
