Notes: Les Clans from Chateau d’Esclans is a delicate, pale pink colour & has some evidence of oak on the nose, which gives the wine a very subtle smoky character. The palate is complex yet elegant with notes of nectarines, peach & redcurrant. The wine underwent barrel fermentation & Bâtonnage two times a week for ten months, this added complex flavours of vanilla & butter & gave the wine its medium body & creamy texture. An exceptional rose & possibly our favourite from the Chateau d’Esclans lineup.
Producer Info: Chateau d’Esclans is located on an exceptional site, on elevated land near the Gorges de Pennafort, twenty kilometers northwest of the ancient Roman city of Frejus on the Mediterranean coast. The first traces of the chateau’s site date back to Gaullist times during which its location served as a lookout point to spot intruders coming by boat into the Gulf of Frejus. The surrounding land around Chateau d’Esclans is known as La Vallee des Esclans (the valley of the clans). At one point the entire area was part of the chateau’s property & over time was gradually parcelled out. In 2006 Sacha Lichine acquired Chateau d’Esclans beginning a new & exciting history for this remarkable Chateau & the 267 hectares surrounding it. Awarded The Wine Enthusiast`s European Winery of The Year Award for 2014.
