Clos du Rocher, Doral, vendanges tardives

Sweet wine | Yvorne Grand Cru, Chablais AOC

A rare nectar from a great terroir!
This little sweetness from Clos du Rocher comes from a little-known Swiss grape variety, a cross between Chasselas and Chardonnay: Doral. Harvested in December, this sweet wine then rested for another 3 years in new barrels. The result is very complex: vanilla, tonka beans, citrus fruits, exotic fruits. On the palate, the remarkable acidity and salinity make this nectar airy, very long, very fine!

Fine, elegant, expressive and of prodigious complexity, where notes of vanilla, coconut and tonka bean blend wonderfully with those of grapefruit, candied lemon, orange and pineapple.

Soft, concentrated and with invigorating acidity, with a finish of superb salinity and long persistence. A great terroir wine.

Clos du Rocher

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!
