2020 Chateau d’Esclans 'Les Clans' Rose Cotes de Provence 1.5L

Winemaker Notes: Epitomizing a sophisticated, food driven wine made from Grenache and Rolle (Vermentino), Les Clans (entirely fermented and aged in large French oak barrels) represents a particular disconnect with rosé in general as it is quite remarkable with potential to age or, if tempted, to enjoy with great pleasure sooner rather than later. This wine is both rich and exotic while being full bodied and elegant.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


Decanter - "Integrated nutty nose, with rosewater and vanilla aromas. The palate is sumptuously rich, with depth of extraction of peach, redcurrant and plum fruit flavours, oatmeal textured oak, bread dough, sweet spices and a lovely citrus lick on the finish. An elegant and very lovely wine. Blend: 81% Grenache, 19% Vermentino."


James Suckling - "Very perfumed with sliced strawberry, crushed stone, cement and some dried flowers. Medium body and a fine, linear palate with licorice and slate. Complex and subtle. Tight, lingering finish with peaches and cream. Drink or hold."
