2017 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
James Suckling - "Intense aromas of dried strawberries and peaches with chalk and stone follow through to a full body that’s dense and powerful yet always fruity and vivid. Layers of flavors and intensity. Best Clans ever?"
Wine Enthusiast - "With an extra year of aging before release, this wine has both great fruit and a rich, spicy character. The concentration and the ripe berry flavors are smoothed by rounded tannins and given a bite from pepper flavors at the end. It's ready to drink."
