Château de Roquefort – Les Genêts 2023 is a single-variety white wine made entirely from Vermentino (known locally as “Rolle”), grown on limestone and flinty soils in a cool, north-facing terroir.
In the glass, the wine displays a clear, pale-golden colour. The nose reveals a delicate and refined bouquet: white fruit such as pear, subtle citrus notes, floral hints and a trace of flinty minerality that impart freshness and elegance. On the palate Les Genêts is lively, precise and mineral — with a vibrant acidity, a gentle saline freshness and a clean, slightly spicy finish.The finish is long and pure, typical of a wine that faithfully reflects its terroir.
This wine is ideal as an aperitif, and pairs beautifully with seafood, fish dishes or light Mediterranean cuisine — perfect for summer meals, casual lunches or convivial evenings.
