The estate and the wine |

Spectacular! Today, our selection takes you to the heart of the Bordeaux Right Bank at the prestigious estate of Château du Roc. On these lands which are organically farmed, Eric Prissette crafts wines with virtuosity and enchantment. |

It lives up to its name! The 2016 Red Coup de Foudre by Roc seduces from the start with its notes of truffles and graphite and its perfectly ripe and balanced texture. On the palate, the freshness of the vintage asserts itself, signing a merlot-cabernet duo of just the right proportion between density and minerality. This is undoubtedly a very beautiful expression of the right bank, a tasty vintage to be discovered now with a beautiful shoulder of lamb or a hunting dish. A Selection Committee Favorite rated 92/100. |
