Nestled on the left bank of the Tarn River, just north of Toulouse, the Côtes du Frontonnais is a distinctive winemaking area with a mix of flatlands, gentle slopes, and unique Rougeot soil. This soil, rich in clay and iron oxide, is renowned for its excellent drainage, allowing vines to access deep nutrients and minerals. The result? A touch of “je ne sais quoi” in the wines, much admired by the Burgundians.
Domaine Le Roc, previously known as Château Le Roc (until the name was changed due to the absence of an actual château), is led by the Ribes family. For over 30 years, they have championed the local Negrette grape, a variety that thrives in this region despite its challenging nature. Negrette is known for its unique, fruity character and is often blended to enhance complexity. Domaine Le Roc practices organic farming with a focus on traditional, responsible techniques.
Le Roc Ambulle is a sparkling gem that embodies both liveliness and delicacy. With its enticing aroma of red fruits, it offers a crisp, refreshing burst of strawberry and cherry on the palate. The low tannins contribute to its clean, immediate profile. Ideal when well-chilled and enjoyed under the sun, this limited-production wine promises swift satisfaction.
