Chasselas: revealing great terroir!
At Clos du Rocher, the vines thrive under the sun, fully south-facing, their roots anchored in the stony soil. Here, Chasselas reveals this fabulous terroir through a style marked by remarkable breadth and minerality. This great white wine is delicious when young, fresh and expressive, but equally captivating after ten, twenty or even thirty years, developing a deep and fascinating character while never losing any of its natural elegance.

Located in Yvorne, one of the largest wine-growing municipalities in the Canton of Vaud, Clos du Rocher benefits from an exceptional terroir. Nestled against the rock face, the vines face due south on one of the steepest slopes in the region, in stony, well-drained soil. The warm Föhn winds help prevent disease, while in the evening and at night, temperatures drop, maintaining balance in the grapes.
Harvests at perfect maturity, traditional vinification, aging in wooden vases.

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!
