There are few occasions when you could taste a Provence rosé that balances a rich, delightful volume and subtle, exquisite aromas so elaborately. Words are unnecessary but we must speak. Les Clans from the famous Chateau D'Esclans is the epitome of refined winemaking.
The starting point was the production of Whispering Angel with pioneering techniques for Provence, which marked the "rosé renaissance" and made the name of the genius Sacha Lichine ring around the world. Chateau d'Esclans has the style of a Tuscan villa and also works as a negociant to find the best grapes and the best vineyards of Provence every year for the production of legendary rosé wines.
Les Clans comes exclusively from high-quality privately owned vines and thus the assurance of excellent raw material is a given. The harvest is done with surgical precision and only those Grenache grapes that pass the Optical Eye Sorting are used. The free-run nectar ferments in 600-liter oak barrels under controlled temperature to preserve its freshness. The frequent batonnage and its 11-month stay in the barrels, give it volume, oiliness, and remarkable aging potential.
Every year it impresses wine critics, who give it crazy scores that fully justify style characterizations, "it wins you over slowly, but it never lets you go"!
We warned you…
