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.

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
CloseRozeta is a superb Corbières from domaine Maxime Magnon. This fruit-filled organic wine knows how to be greedy and complex: it develops on notes of red fruit, garrigue and thyme. We appreciate the balance of this cuvée, which remains soft and digestible.
