This is where the departure from the traditional rose really begins! The grapes for Les Clans are selected from old vines consisting primarily of Grenache and Rolle. This wine is made from 90% free run juice and 10% first slight pressing. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in new and second-year demi-muids. Burgundian style batonnage occurs twice weekly for ten months to enhance creaminess and complexity.
This wine has fragrant aromas of red berries, white peach, and spice and dazzles on the palate with layers of strawberry, cherry, spice, and a hint of lavender. The lovely complexity accompanies a luxuriously creamy mouthfeel followed by a long, lingering finish. This wine would pair beautifully with everything from rich seafood dishes to roasted chicken!
Winemaker Notes:
Epitomizing a sophisticated, food-driven wine, 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 the 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:
D95, 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."
JS94, 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."
