CHATEAU D ESCLANS LES CLANS ROSE COTES DE PROVENCE FRANCE 2022

A serious nose for a rosé, with some prominent oak spice, then fresh plums and nimble red berries. Full-bodied, dense and tightly wound, with a lovely phenolic structure. Yet, it remains pure. A fine touch of herbal and oak bitterness at the end, with natural, elegant acidity following through. Drinkable now, but better after 2023.
