2023 Francois Cotat Sancerre Chavignol Rose Rhone The Arborist Gin’s robust profile

The Arborist Gin’s robust profile performs well in strongly-flavored cocktails such as those with tonic or ginger

and the wines were just remarkable

and plenty of acid-driven tension as per the Bitouzet house style

medium-to-long pineapple smoothie finish with coating tannins and moderate oak flavor

full-bodied with plenty of “zinberry” (that mythical raspberry-orange cross) along with an intriguing note of cinnamon
