Intense floral aromas mingle with spicy nuances in this cuvée that appeals to the palate. The palate is supple, fresh, and refined all at once. A flattering Fronton to be enjoyed in its youth.

Estate rated 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing good wines, you won't be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)

About the estate:

With the arrival of Grégoire and Anne, the Ribes family incorporated the vineyards of Château Flotis, a neighboring property that they already operated, into Le Roc. Syrah and Négrette grapes grown on a stony hillside now join the ranks of the estate. The grafted Bouysselet grapes, vinified in barrels, produce an ambitious white wine, while the Négrette grapes remain at their best thanks to careful and increasingly modern vinification techniques.
