Nestled in the picturesque heart of Provence, Château d’Esclans is a viticultural treasure that stands apart for its exceptional terroir and commitment to producing world-renowned rosé wines. Located in the commune of La Motte, between the Maures Massif and the Esterel mountain, the estate benefits from a unique microclimate shaped by maritime breezes and rich, gravelly soils, which infuse its wines with character and freshness.
At Château d’Esclans, the Grenache and Rolle grape varieties form the foundation of three exquisite rosés: Château d’Esclans 2022, Les Clans 2022, and Garrus 2022, all of which were recently honored in the inaugural WBSS (World’s Best Sommelier Selection). This prestigious recognition places these wines among the elite of the global wine world.
The estate’s offerings reflect its distinctive terroir, with deep, clay-limestone soils and vines that are up to a century old. Château d’Esclans’ Cuvée Château symbolises the spirit of its land, while the more complex Les Clans and Garrus are designed for aging, achieving remarkable structure and density while maintaining a vibrant freshness.
A distinctive feature of the estate is its foothill at the upper part of the domain, enhancing airflow from the nearby sea. Every afternoon, cool maritime currents sweep across the vines, bringing natural balance to the grapes and contributing to the distinctive mouthfeel and elegance that define Château d’Esclans wines.
With a deep respect for its land and an unwavering dedication to quality, Château d’Esclans continues to craft rosés that stand among the finest in the world, embodying the essence of Provence.
