Domaine des Rochers – Loupiac – White – 2018:

 

DOM. DES ROCHERS Loupiac: A Right Bank Sweet Wine Jewel

This Loupiac from Domaine des Rochers is an outstanding sweet wine, embodying the elegance and finesse of Bordeaux’s Right Bank. Grown on clay-limestone slopes, this Sémillon-dominant blend is beautifully affected by Noble Rot (Botrytis Cinerea), concentrating its natural sugars and aromatic compounds.

Through meticulous, successive hand-picking (trie), the wine achieves a depth of flavour and an unctuous texture that promises both immediate pleasure and impressive longevity. A true classic for the connoisseur’s cellar.

Tasting Notes

• Appearance: Clear, bright gold, promising a complex evolution to deep amber.
• Bouquet: Opulent and layered, featuring dominant notes of candied apricot, exotic fruit preserve, honey, and a hint of orange marmalade.
• Taste: Full-bodied and velvety, the palate is marked by luscious flavors of peach, vanilla, and candied plum. A refreshing, nervy acidity cuts through the sweetness, providing a flawless balance and a persistent, elegant finish.

Pairing & Service

Best served cool (8°C – 10°C). An exceptional choice to elevate a cheeseboard or conclude a sophisticated dinner party.
