Description

  • Dry style
  • Strawberry & peach
  • Florals & subtle spice
  • Mouth-watering

"Brightly expressed and inviting, the bouquet shows sweet strawberry, pomegranate and white floral notes, followed by a lively palate delivering fine flow combined with zesty acidity, finishing mouth-watering and tasty" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Jun 2024

"Aromas and flavours of white peach and apple, there’s a light citrus and apricot quality before a seam of granitic minerality and flint begins to show. Lightweight on the palate with a lively acid line and fruit flavours that reflect the bouquet. Balanced, well made and ready to drink from day of purchase through end of summer 2026" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier, Jun 2024

"Delicately scented, dry Rosé with pomegranate, grapefruit, and a crisp, lingering finish. Good food wine that can also be enjoyed without the complication of food" Bob Campbell Master of Wine, Real Review, Jun 2024

Produced by the highly acclaimed LGI wines, awarded Best French Still Wine Producer at Berliner Wein Trophy in 2017, 2018 and 2019! Originally the brainchild of Alain Grignon, who had a vision of making affordable, classic French wines designed specifically for the international market. Now under the supervision of oenologist Xavier Roger.

The Combe Rocher (literally ‘rocky valley’) range is one of pure authenticity crafted from carefully selected terroirs with rocky soils between the Montagne Noire (Black Mountain range) over four departments along the Languedoc-Roussillon. This is a perfect location, with South facing slopes and hot sunny days to fully ripen the grapes. Here, the northern mountains of the Pyrenees and the Cevennes embrace the vineyards of the Pays d’Oc like an amphitheatre.

This delicious Rosé wine was born in the Languedoc from a small village in the foothills where making Rosé wine is a longstanding way of life. Here, Grenache grapes benefit from the Mediterranean climate to reach optimum ripeness. The grapes are harvested at night when the temperature is cool in order to prevent oxidation and preserve freshness in the wine. As they arrive at the cellar, the grapes are immediately pressed. The pressed juice is put in a CO2 saturated atmosphere to avoid any oxidation. Juices are drawn from the tanks and left to ferment for 15 days at 13-15°C in stainless steel tanks. Fine lees ageing for 4 months before bottling.
Food Pairing: Enjoy this wine chilled, as an aperitif or with various tapas, cold cuts, hummus, Caesar salad.
