The 2004 Roc de Montagne is a red wine from the Montagne-Saint-Émilion appellation, produced by Producta Vignobles.

The 2004 vintage in this region is characterized as fresh and classic, achieving a score of 86 points.
Montagne-Saint-Émilion is the largest of the four Saint-Émilion satellites, located in the Libournais district just north of Saint-Émilion itself. The vineyards are set on a hilly terrain surrounding the village of Montagne. The local terroir features clay-limestone soils on the ridges, gravel and sand on the slopes, and sections of limestone bedrock, supported by a stony subsoil. The oceanic climate is moderated by the waters of the Dordogne river, providing mild temperatures and a certain level of humidity.
Classified as a Grand Vin de Bordeaux, the wine is crafted from a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon, and was bottled at the property. Merlot, a classic blue grape frequently grown in Bordeaux as well as in California, Washington, and Northern Italy, typically dominates the blends in this appellation, thriving on the cool clay-limestone soils. It is supported by Cabernet Franc, which is widely cultivated in the Loire Valley, Bordeaux, and California, along with Cabernet Sauvignon, one of the world's most recognized blue grapes found in regions like Bordeaux, California, Washington, and Tuscany.
