MONT ROCHER, VIOGNIER, VIEILLES VIGNES, IGP PAYS D’OC, FRANCE 2019
Producer Profile
Southern France, with its multifarious regions, indigenous grapes, cultures and traditions is home to some of the most exciting, characterful wines in the world at present.
Mont Rocher is a collection of wines produced from indigenous varieties, produced in a style that lets them clearly express their varietal typicity and sense of place.
Viticulture
Sourced from small parcels of vines in the South of France and focus on intriguing varietals that are indigenous to that region.
Winemaking
The very aromatic Viognier produces its aromas at a certain stage of maturation. Our winemaker’s team follows the process by tasting the grapes in August, in order to choose the right day to harvest. Once harvested, the grapes undergo a short skin-contact maceration. Then, the juice, collected after a delicate pressing and meticulous off-settling, ferments at low temperature.
Oak Treatment
No oak treatment
Tasting Note
A haunting honeysuckle and apricot aroma and rich, almost unctuous palate that is somehow still dry, tangy and refreshing.
Food Matching
With pasta and seafood.
