Rocalhas 2020
Rocalhas 2020 is Sybil Baldassarre's signature wine — 70% Grenache Blanc, 15% Roussanne and 15% Marsanne from old vines planted in 1997 on fractured schist at 450m in Cabrerolles. Rocalhas (fractured stones in Occitan) shows what white Faugères terroir can deliver in the right hands. One of the most talked-about natural whites in Languedoc.

Karaktär
Yellow fruit, white blossom and a driven minerality from the ancient schist soils. Broad, rich and complex with bright acidity and a long, mineral finish. More depth and ageing potential than most natural whites at this price — and better with 1–3 years in bottle.
