Château d'Esclans : Garrus 2021

This has reached a stage where the interplay of fruit and oak on the nose has reached its first peak, although there will be much more to come. The same is true of the palate, but here the interplay of fruit (including apricot and peach) and oak (creamy cashew nut) is with acidity and minerality too. It’s a wine of great intensity and vinosity, yet effortlessly graceful and refreshing, with a silky texture and many layers. Once again, great white Burgundy hoves into view.

This super-rich rosé has great balance, fruit and intensity. Its spice and wood aging support the fine fruit, richness and balanced acidity. This famous rosé remains a pioneering wine while showing the potential of Provence rosé. Drink this fine wine now.
