White wine | Yvorne Grand Cru, Chablais AOC

Remarkable in every way!
This Chasselas is a model of harmonious aging! It is first floral, then mineral, fresh, and finally fruity. Full and enveloping in the mouth, it is enhanced by a salty touch in the finish. A fine example of an exceptional vintage, for a round, smooth, delicious white wine. A Rocher rounded by age, which will caress the noblest palates.

Clos du Rocher 2015

CHF 45.90 (75cl)

Colour

Golden and shiny.

Nose

Floral, with aromas of linden and saffron, but also mineral and fresh, with accents of flint, chalk, a touch of petrol and mint. And, finally, complete with notes of apricot and puff pastry.

Palate

Full and enveloping, with mineral notes and a hint of salt on the finish.

Wine-growing terroir

Yvorne, the largest wine-growing commune in Vaud, is distinguished by its terroir with gravelly and clay-limestone soil. In 1584 the landslide of a rock mass almost completely destroyed the village. This scree therefore constitutes its terroir, which gives Chasselas unique character traits. Le Clos du Rocher, an exceptional vineyard, is backed by rock and sheltered from cold winds. It benefits from a south-facing exposure.

Winemaking

Harvests at perfect maturity, traditional vinification, aging in wooden vases.

Bottle closure

Screw cap

Packaging

Carton

Clos du Rocher

Clos du Rocher was born in the 19th century, when vines and well-ordered walls replaced scrub and rock. The estate was acquired in 1918 by Emile Obrist, who immediately recognised the qualities of this terroir. He has proved it ever since, as this vineyard with its special aura has received praise from the profession, as much for its wines as for its winemakers!
