Our oenologists' opinion
Fruity and well-rounded
Fragrances of juniper and fennel, allied with a grey pepper scent, are released by this gin. Well-balanced, it is also full-bodied. A light sweet taste is perceptible. Fresh, this gin has a strong personality thanks to spice notes recalling cumin, star anise and candied ginger.

Features
Body ? The body is the way a wine feels inside the mouth. Several factors, such as the alcohol content and the presence of tannins, contribute to the feel of the wine.
Freshness ? The freshness of a wine is defined by its level of acidity. Unlike rounded wines, fresh wines are easy to drink, and are more lively. Acidity plays a necessary part in a wine's structure.
Aging ? All wines do not have the same aging potential. Some are supposed to be consumed at a young age while others must be kept for longer periods of time.
Tannins ? Coming from stems, grape pips and their storage barrels, the tannin gives structure to red wines only.

Domain and appellation

Citadelle
At the Château de Bonbonnet, juniper berries are carefully cultivated.
To craft this gin, these berries are combined with 18 other spices: coriander, cardamom, angelica, cumin, nutmeg, almonds, grains of paradise, liquorice, cubeb pepper, savory, cinnamon, star anise, blackcurrant, orris root, violet, fennel, and finally, orange and lemon zest.
Each of these 19 spices is infused for a specific duration in a neutral spirit made from French wheat. This artisanal process is protected by a patent—the only patent ever granted for gin production.
