DOMAINE DU ROCHER DES DAMES

Le Rocher des Dames – Five Generations of Passion in Beaumes de Venise

A Family Estate Rooted in Tradition. Nestled in the heart of Beaumes de Venise, at the foot of the Dentelles de Montmirail, Le Rocher des Dames is the fruit of five generations of passionate winemakers — the Bernard family. For over a century, they have cultivated the vine with the same philosophy: respect the land, listen to nature, and let the terroir speak for itself.

On 10 hectares of sun-drenched hillsides typical of the appellation, the estate benefits from diverse soils: Miocene sands for the whites and Muscats, Triassic pebbles for the structured reds. Each parcel is farmed under sustainable viticulture, ensuring healthy, expressive grapes that fully reflect their origin.

Meticulous Winemaking – A Blend of Skill and Precision

The wines of Le Rocher des Dames are crafted in partnership with the renowned Cave de Gigondas LaCave. This collaboration ensures complete control over every stage of vinification, resulting in exclusive cuvées that proudly bear the signature of the estate and the essence of Beaumes de Venise.

From the careful selection of grapes to the final blend, every decision is guided by the pursuit of perfect harmony — balancing power, finesse, and authenticity.

Beaumes de Venise Rouge – The Soul of a Sunlit Terroir

Rich, structured, and full-bodied, the Beaumes de Venise Rouge from Le Rocher des Dames reveals the depth and warmth of its Mediterranean terroir. Its brilliant ruby-red hue with violet reflections opens on aromas of black fruit, sweet spices, and dried figs.

The palate is generous and velvety, with silky tannins and a lingering finish marked by a hint of licorice. A true wine for ageing, ideal with slow-cooked dishes, grilled meats, or aged cheeses.

Muscat Beaumes de Venise – The Golden Jewel of the Estate

The Muscat de Beaumes de Venise is the estate’s emblematic wine — a naturally sweet gem of crystalline freshness. Its pale gold color with green highlights reveals a delicate bouquet of lychee, mango, vine peach, and acacia blossom.

The palate is refined and perfectly balanced, its lively freshness preventing any heaviness. This Muscat captures the family’s philosophy in a single glass: pleasure without excess. Served well-chilled, it pairs beautifully with foie gras, fruit desserts, or simply as a pure moment of joy under the Provençal sun.

Warm Hospitality in the Heart of the Vines

Le Rocher des Dames is also a place of welcome and sharing. In their renovated Provençal farmhouse, the Bernard family offers a 3-ear guest room, allowing visitors to experience the vineyard from within. Guests can follow the rhythm of the seasons, breathe in the scent of the garrigue, and feel the passion of winemakers deeply connected to their land.
