Description
About Domaine Clos des Rocs Wines
The vineyard, practically in one piece, is oriented to the east and located on a clay-limestone hillside at an average altitude of 270 meters .
On the reddening, stony and shallow earth of the secondary era, the estate’s vines exceed the more than respectable age of 85 years , guaranteeing the production of quality wines.
The property is cut by a fault which separates on one side the alluvial soils from which the most delicious Pouilly-Loché come such as the 4 Saisons and the Barres and on the other the plots planted on the Jurassic limestone rock; plot selections such as Mûres and Le Clos des Rocs Monopole find their fulfillment there.
In order to respect the balance of our eco-system and bring maximum biodiversity to the vines, the estate buys and preserves woods adjacent to the plots. The maintenance of hedges and green spaces surrounding the different places are a priority; conservation of natural wildlife habitats results from this.
The partnership with breeders allows you to benefit from the benefits of living with flocks of sheep: the latter regulate the growth of grass by maintaining low cover, while amending the soil.
And honestly, it’s nicer than the noise of tractors or other mowers: pruning to the sweet sounds of bleating in winter, what joy!
