Garrus is the first wine from Chateau d'Esclans and stands out as one of the finest and most expensive rosés in the region. This wine is made from 80-year-old Garnacha and Rolle vines, also known as Vermentino in Italy. Unlike many rosés, Garrus is designed to be enjoyed after a period of aging in the bottle, allowing its complex flavors to fully develop. The fermentation takes place in oak barrels at controlled temperatures, contributing to its development of unique nuances. Subsequently, the wine ages for eight months in barrels, giving it additional depth. One of the distinctive features of this rosé is its contact with the lees, achieved through a process called battonage, where the wine is stirred weekly. This process, similar to that used in Burgundy Chardonnay, not only adds complexity but also enriches the texture and weight on the palate, making Garrus a singular choice for wine lovers.
