Product Description:

"Roche Noir is produced by Les Vignerons des Roquemaure or Rocca Maura, as the local reference, and is a cooperative of 50 different growers established in 1922. Their mission is to keep things small and focus on quality. The name translates to ‘black rock’, a defining aspect of the soil in the vineyard. The label depicts a ballerina perching the eponymous black rock on her hand. The image represents grace, balance and power, key characteristics of any good Cotes du Rhone. Don’t let the modern, punk rock style throw you. This is as traditional an example of a Cotes du Rhone as it gets. With so many CDR out there, we wanted you to pay attention and remember." - Importer
