Roc de Puisseguin – Puisseguin Saint-Emilion
The Puisseguin Saint-Emilion appellation is reserved for still dry red wines. The vineyard is located to the north-east of Bordeaux, 10km from Saint-Emilion in the Libourne region. The rugged landscape consists of a mosaic of vineyard parcels planted on the slopes and the plateau. The vine has probably been cultivated in this region since Gallo-Roman times. The wines are full-bodied, delicious and with powerful tannins.
Roc is commonly used as the name for villages built on stone foundations. The name “roc” gives an impression of solidity, balance and heritage. The wines of Bordeaux are firmly based on French and Bordeaux tradition, wines made with the know-how of cultural heritage, viticulture and symbolic architecture.
