Quinta dos Roques pioneered the idea of varietal bottling in Portugal with their 1996 wines, and were probably responsible for the Touriga Nacional gold rush which followed. Despite their fame, Roques remain a small producer, with many of their bottlings not exceeding 1000 cases. With 12 different plots totalling 40 hectares this is a dynamic and exciting estate, making a sometimes bewildering array of different wines. An elegant red with ripe black fruit and vanilla notes, the palate continues the theme developing balance and persistent silky flavours. (12 x 75 cl)

Chateau du Roques ROSE DEROQUES Vin de Table
Description: Philip Iles and family moved to the sleepy village of Villenave de Rions in 1998. In doing so he realised a dream, as he now owned his own vineyard. Three years on he is making some of the Premiere Cotes de Bordeaux most exciting wines. They are certainly at the cutting edge of the New Wave of Bordeaux wines; New World attention to fruit but still a respect for the best of the Old World traditions and terroir is proving to be an effective formula in both the Lezongars and deRoques ranges.
