Features
Frédéric Ribes du Roc et Philippe Teulier du Cros ont une belle amitié de plus de 30 ans. Ils aiment échanger, déguster, comparer, découvrir, vinifier... bref, ils aiment être curieux ensemble.
Depuis une dizaine d'années, ils travaillent sur l'idée d'assembler leurs deux cépages pour faire un seul vin. Aux grés des millésimes, ils ont testé, parfois regretté mais souvent validé.
La cuvée Cros'Roc est née !
60 % Négrette de plus de 20 ans sur des boulbènes graveleuses.
40 % Fer Servadou de plus de 20 ans sur des éboulis calcaires .
Vinification traditionnelle au domaine Le Roc. Encuvage par gravité des baies éraflées. Aucun intrant oenologique. Cuvaison de 4 semaines. Pigeage régulier. Séparation des jus de goutte et des jus de presse.
Elevage 11 mois en cuve béton.
Dégustation : la robe est grenat translucide. Le nez est fin et intense, sur la violette, le poivre, la groseille à maquereau, avec des notes sanguines / ferreuses / épicées. La bouche est ronde, ample, soyeuse, avec une matière plus dense et profonde qu'elle n'y paraît au premier abord, et une belle tension reposant sur la fraîcheur. Le fruit, bien présent, se fait disputer la vedette par de fines notes florales et poivrées. La finale prolonge la bouche sans afficher la moindre dureté, se contentant de la souligner d'une très fine mâche savoureuse, sur la violette et le poivre blanc qui persistent assez longuement.

What is an author wine?
This can be so diverse depending on the personality of their sire, that it is easier to define what it is not. An author wine is anything but a standard, stereotypical wine, made to please as many people as possible. It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage in vintage.
An author wine is therefore a wine that does not look like that of the neighbor. Which from year to year will evolve according to the vagaries of the weather and the mood of the author - the two that can be linked. Because the author does not rely on market studies to carry out his boat. He makes his wine as he feels, as he likes, as he can, sometimes ... and too bad if he does not please everyone.
This is why author wines are sometimes classified as "table wine" or "France wine". Because the winemaker did not plan the authorized grape variety*, makes the assembly or vinification recommended in the name **. He is often a bit rebellious, our author. But that is why we like it! ... That said, author's wines are not systematically marginal: they are present in most of the appellations, and can be part of the elite of these this***. Because they are not content to have personality: they are good, in addition! With in general aDegree of TorchabilityVery high: we never tire of it at the end of the first sip.
As author's wines are not chaptalized, levied, hacked ... They can have very different profiles depending on the vintage. It is up to us (resellers and consumers) to accept them as they are, and to remain faithful to the producers, because they need us to continue their activity.
