WINE DESCRIPTION
Château Roquefort Bordeaux Blanc is a vibrant expression of Bordeaux’s renowned winemaking tradition. Crafted by the skilled hands of Château Roquefort, this wine hails from the esteemed Bordeaux appellation, showcasing grapes nurtured in the estate’s 20 hectares of clay-limestone soil. The vineyard, with an average vine age of 25 years and a planting density of 4,500 vines per hectare, is meticulously managed through double Guyot pruning, strategic leaf removal, and green harvesting to ensure optimal quality.

A gentle, low-temperature fermentation enhances its elegance, while aging in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks preserves the wine’s bright, expressive character.
