Garrus 2024 Chateau d'Esclans

Robert Parker (93)

Sourced from a single vineyard of century-old Grenache vines and fermented and aged in new large French oak barrels, the 2024 Côtes de Provence Rosé Garrus wafts from the glass with a complex and elegant bouquet of dried apricot, dried fig, orchard fruit and spices mingled with almond and a subtle oaky nuance. Medium- to full-bodied, dense and concentrated, it's seamless and elegant, with good depth at the core and a long, spicy finish of remarkable persistence. It's the most ambitious expression of Côtes de Provence rosé at this address, and it's built for the cellar.

James Suckling (96)

An excellent wine that’s textural, structured, focused and very long. It shows aromas of dried raspberries, wild strawberries, peach skin, warm herbs and baking spices. Medium-bodied with a velvety texture. Well rounded and harmonious, with a lively, zesty and long finish. Drink or hold.

Vinous (91)

The 2024 Rosé Garrus, tasted from magnum, shows the best oak integration of the 2024s here, and is also the brightest, most lively wine of the bunch. It needs some time to come together, but today it shows promise. Sweet spice, lemon peel, chalk, sea salt, tart raspberry and herbs weave a complex web. Give this big, serious Rosé some time.
