The name is a clever pun on the Roc-ky soils where the grapes grow and the new name for Vermentino (which the French must now call Rolle). It shows that Languedoc wines can be bright, fresh and balanced.

On the nose are aromas of white currants and citrus. The Rolle grapes have developed full ripeness in the Languedoc sunshine and the rocky terroir of Chateau Coujan. The palate is refreshing, round and harmonious with hints of peaches and a flash of minerality.

Ideal as an aperitif and light first courses, or pair it with fish and seafood.

Languedoc-Rousillon, France

The Languedoc is a vast region stretching across much of the south and Mediterranean and is France`s single largest vineyard entity for its Vins de Pays wines.

Within the Languedoc lie several distinctly identified Vins de Pays (including the l`Aude, Gard and Hérault) and many appellations that maintain traditional local blends and styles such as Minervois, Corbières, Pic Saint Loup and Fitou.

Florence Guy, Château Coujan

Vines have been grown on the site of Château Coujan since the 3rd Century when it was the site of a Roman Villa, remnants of the Gallo-Roman mosaic can still be seen in the Visigothic chapel.

Bought by the Guy family in 1868, Florence Guy took over stewardship in 1988. She converted the 55 hectares to organic cultivation and refitted the cellar to create distinctive and elegant wines, which are Coujan's hallmark.

Vermentino / Rolle

Vermentino is a late ripening, light-skinned wine grape, primarily used in Italian white wines. It is widely planted in Sardinia and Liguria, to some extent in Corsica, in Piedmont under the name Favorita, and in France in Languedoc-Roussillon, where (to the frustration of the vignerons) it must now be called Rolle.

Vermentino wines are powerful, deep, aromatic, and silky on the palate. They are beautiful, pale, and crystalline in colour.
