Description

 


Four day stay at the beautiful Chateau d'Esclans



Chateau d’Esclans is a magnificent estate beautifully situated in Southern Provence, near the village of La Motte in the Var, with 267 hectares of vines, most of which are between 60 and 80 years old.


Here, Sacha Alexis Lichine, together with the renowned oenologist Patrick Leon, has created a unique blend of Grenache grapes. His range of wines includes a fine selection of rose and red, all with the AOC "Cotes de Provences", such as "Whispering Angel", "Chateau D’Esclans", "Les Clans" and "Garrus".


Over the centuries, across customs and cultures, few places in the world have had the magic appeal of Provence. For generations it has sparked the imagination as the land of sunlit pastel water and sky, towering clifftop villages and red clay soil.



Chateau d’Esclans picked up Decanter 2009 World Wine Awards for three of its cuvees:


Whispering Angel 2007 - Côtes De Provence, Provence, France
