Tasting notes
G'Vine is a French gin made from grapes, a noble ingredient rarely used in gin making. From Cognac this exceptional gin incorporates the rare and ephemeral vine flower into its production process.The grape is the ideal canvas for expressing the complexity and delicacy of the ten plants and spices that make up Gin G'Vine. Among these is a unique ingredient: the vine flower that embellishes the vineyard with its delicate fragrance only a few days a year. The marriage of the essence of this hand-picked flower to that of aromatic plants creates the freshness and the irreproachable sweetness of Gin G'Vine.

About this gin
G'Vine - Floraison
G'Vine - Floraison is a unique and exquisite gin that is perfect for those who appreciate the finer things in life. Made from the rare and delicate Ugni Blanc grape, this gin is distilled in small batches in the heart of France, using traditional methods that have been passed down through generations.
The taste profile of G'Vine - Floraison is complex and sophisticated, with a delicate floral aroma that gives way to a smooth and silky texture on the palate. The gin is infused with a range of botanicals, including juniper berries, ginger root, cardamom, and cubeb berries, which give it a subtle spiciness and a hint of sweetness.
The history of the producer is steeped in tradition and innovation. G'Vine was founded in 2006 by Jean-Sébastien Robicquet, a fourth-generation distiller who wanted to create a gin that was truly unique. He combined his knowledge of traditional distilling techniques with his passion for innovation, and the result was G'Vine - Floraison.
G'Vine - Floraison is best enjoyed in a classic gin and tonic, garnished with a slice of cucumber or a sprig of fresh mint. It is also delicious in a range of cocktails, including the classic martini and the French 75. Whether you are sipping it on a warm summer evening or enjoying it with friends at a dinner party, G'Vine - Floraison is sure to impress.
