Mont Rocher Vielles Vignes Malbec

A French red wine from the Pays D’Oc region of Languedoc-Roussillon, using grapes sourced from 50 year old vines. These Malbec grapes come from vineyards in dramatic hills and terraces above the Vallée d’Agly, where the famed black schist is interspersed with pockets of limestone to bring richness and power with a fresher, more finely defined character.

Three weeks maceration with regular pumping creates a wine deep in colour with aromas of ripe plum, blackberries and cherries. These flow on to the rich and rounded palate with perfectly balanced tannins and a smooth, succulent finish. Try with barbecue dishes and strong cheeses. 

The Mont Rocher range uses indigenous French grape varieties to truly express the sense and spirit of place, or ‘L’esprit de lieu’. Authentically crafted and small batch, their vineyards are located near the southern edge of St Chinian in sun-drenched vineyards of the Pyrenees foothills. The rugged limestone-rich soils bring out the best expressions of their old vine grapes.
