Born from the union of a Bordeaux wine and the savoir-faire of Maison Louis Roque, this Tchanqué Rouge embodies a fruity and convivial aperitif, where the freshness of red fruits meets an elegant and lightly tannic structure.

HISTORY

The cabanes tchanquées, "perched" cabins in Gascon dialect, have overlooked the Bassin d'Arcachon since the 19th century, becoming a true symbol of this landscape between sea and Gascon forest. It is this spirit of terroir, between sea spray and maritime pines, that Maison Louis Roque pays tribute to with the Tchanqué Rouge: an aperitif born from a Bordeaux wine and crafted in Souillac according to artisan savoir-faire.

First impressions

From the very first glance, the Tchanqué Rouge charms with its garnet-red colour, bright and crossed with subtle violet reflections. Clear and lively in the glass, it catches the light with elegance and reveals a beautiful visual intensity. This warm and expressive colour instantly evokes conviviality and moments of sharing around a generous aperitif.

Aromatic profile

The first nose opens with bright notes of fresh red fruits, dominated by cherry and redcurrant, offering a vivid and indulgent aromatic entry. The heart then reveals a beautiful depth with blackberry, gentle spices and a light herbal touch that bring balance and complexity. Finally, the base settles into smooth tannins, light woody notes and a subtle wininess, extending the olfactory experience with elegance and structure.

Tasting

From the very first taste, the palate opens onto a supple and fruity expression, dominated by red fruits typical of the Bordelais. The tannic structure of the base wine brings body and balance without ever weighing down the whole. The tasting extends into a fresh, delicately spiced finish that prolongs the pleasure with elegance. Best enjoyed over ice, it pairs ideally with oysters from the Bassin d'Arcachon or a Basque cheese board.
