This Fronton is known for its intense fruitiness and firm tannins, which suggest great aging potential. On the palate, it offers a lovely, full-bodied texture with a long, lingering finish. A wonderful wine to enjoy with a meal!

About the estate:
In the Ribes family, everyone has their place. Jean-Luc, who plays the blues in his spare time, took over the family estate in 1981; over time, he was joined by Frédéric and Cathy, and later by Pierre. The estate covers 23 hectares of boulbènes and gravel soils.

Wine rated " Coup de Coeur" (2016 vintage)
Estates rated 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or high-quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
With the arrival of their children, Grégoire and Anne, the Ribes family incorporated the vineyards of Château Flotis—a neighboring property they had already been managing—into Le Roc. The Syrah and Négrette grapes, grown on a stony hillside, have thus expanded the estate’s portfolio. The grafted Bouysselet, vinified in barrels, produces an ambitious white wine; alongside it, the Négrettes remain at their best thanks to meticulous and increasingly modern winemaking techniques.
