G'Vine Floraison Gin de France 70 cl

Product Information

Each bottle of G’Vine is numbered, not only to improve accountability, but also to fight against counterfeiting. With minimal inscriptions, the clarity and purity of the glass embodies that of the product. Raised in the French vineyards, between Bordeaux and Cognac, the founder, owner and Master Distiller of Maison Villevert, Jean Sébastien Robicquet, is passionate about wine and spirits, and possesses a brazen commitment to the art of fine living. Vil du have en mere traditionel, hvor sødmen fremhæves, så bør der tilføjes vindruer, som fremhæver vinblomsten. Derudover kan du prøve med en hyldeblomst tonic.

Med den franske G’vine Floraison Gin får du en anderledes gin, hvis florale friskhed gør den ideel til lune sommeraftener på terrassen. Med en fantastisk smag fra grønne druer og duften fra sommerblomster, er G'vine et sikkert hit! Fremstillingen af G’vine Floraison tager udgangspunkt i århundredes erfaringer med vinproduktion, der kombineres med en nytænkende tilgang til det at lave spiritus. Foruden vinblomsterne benytter man sig af ni andre botanicals i produktionen. In 2005 I decided to harvest in June and cut the vine flowers on a Friday. We put everything we had harvested in a drum over the weekend to try to preserve it. On the Monday they had all wilted but the air was filled with the floral, fruity flavours that we decided to put into the gin. Floraison has 3 parts – grape neutral spirit, botanical distillates, and vine flower distillate. These are blended and then distilled again together.Though the base spirit is from distilled Ugni Blanc grapes, it’s the grape flowers that are perhaps most unique in G’vine Floraison’s grape profile. The flowers are harvested before they can fruit. They are then macerated and distilled, just as each of the other nine botanicals are— separately. They are then blended, and distilled one more time (all together now!) Tasting Notes Robicquet said: “Fred embodies G’Vine perfectly as a symbol of French charm and elegance. His passion, knowledge and proven expertise make him extremely relevant when talking about wine, spirits and gastronomy. Fred has that French flair and je ne sais quoi that fits the DNA and raison d’être of G’Vine. Furthermore our friendship and shared origin of France make him a natural addition to the Maison Villevert family.” The folks behind G’vine are no stranger to the history of gin and grape-spirit-based-gins. In fact they are behind the 2014 re-creation of a 1495 gin recipe discovered in a Dutch text ( yes, the GIN is IN has reviewed it). G?Vine Gin Floraison is well-rounded in character and neatly balanced in its aromas. The grapes that make the base of this gin are also detectable on the palate, alongside pleasantly powerful floral tones, finely complemented by the other carefully selected botanicals. Drinking G?Vine Gin

After 11 years in at LVMH and William Pitters, Jean Sébastien Robicquet pooled his technical competencies and his business acumen to form in EWG in 2001, now named Maison Villevert. Based in Villevert, a 16th century family manor in Cognac, Robicquet now freely and energetically expresses his vision of the spirits universe by creating contemporary and ultra-premium products, with one motto: “Grapes ennobling the spirits category”. It was in the heart of the 16th century family home Maison Villevert, where G’Vine was first dreamed up and is now produced. Unconventional by its very nature, it is a gin made of grapes instead of more common lower quality grains. It is from the imagination of master distiller Jean-Sébastien Robicquet, that this gin was brought to life by the untapped potential he saw in the grapes of his home in the Cognac region. G’Vine was created by oenologist, founder, president and master distiller of Maison Villevert, Jean-Sébastien Robicquet, and became the third leading premium gin in the world just ten years after launching in 2006 (source: IWSR). G’Vine has also received 43 international awards since its creation including 12 gold and double gold medals. The use of grapes has secured its position a trailblazer in the premium gin boom in the 21st century. This is the first time a UK ambassador has been selected by the premium French gin made with grapes and reflects distiller Maison Villevert’s continued drive for growth in the local market following ongoing success since launching in 2006.The color is also chosen for the ingredient at the heart of G’Vine: the grape. Green is the color of the vines that grow throughout the Petite and Grande Champagne regions, that bear our vine blossoms in June, and our grapes in September. The transparency of the glass bottle reflects the fresh flavor of our delicately perfumed gin. Not just a green bottle

Compared alongside it’s peers, G’vine Floraison is still as contemporary as it gets. But it’s still the bar to which all others aspire to reach.G?Vine Gin Nouaison is recognisable by the charcoal-tinted bottle. According to the producers, this colour is representative of the moment at which the grapes begin to grow. That?s also the reason for the name Nouaison, which means something like ?the birth of the grape?. This G?Vine Gin is marked by a soft floral aroma, in which notes of juniper and more fruity colourations are also to be recognised. Other botanicals in G?Vine Gin?s Nouaison include ginger, lemon, and cinnamon.
