Handcrafted in Cognac, France, by Maison Ferrand at Chateau de Bonbonnet, Citadelle Gin Rouge is a vibrant, fruit-infused extension of the famed French gin brand. Distilled in open-flame Charentais copper pot stills using Citadelle's signature 19 classic gin botanicals, this expression undergoes an infusion of 100% natural fresh red fruits and rhubarb—specifically fresh cranberries, raspberries, blackberries, blackcurrants, and tangy rhubarb. Unlike heavily sweetened flavored gins, Citadelle Rouge remains a dry, crisp spirit that balances luscious berry freshness and tart rhubarb brightness with a robust piney juniper core.
Food Pairing: Fresh berry pavlova, duck breast with a red fruit reduction, goat cheese crostini, lemon meringue pie, charcuterie with soft brie and berry compote, or dark chocolate desserts.
Tasting Notes: Soft natural pinkish-rose in appearance with a clean, smooth, and vibrant medium body.
Nose: Intensely aromatic and fruity upfront, bursting with fresh raspberries, tart cranberries, crisp rhubarb, and sweet blackberries, supported by subtle orange blossom, warm coriander, and resinous piney juniper.
Palate: Fresh, crisp, and beautifully balanced, opening with juicy red berries and a tangy pop of tart rhubarb before unfolding into rich layers of piney juniper, citrus peel, baking spices, and herbaceous angelica root without any cloying sweetness.
Finish: Medium-long, clean, and dry with lingering notes of tart berry skin, tangy rhubarb zest, and crisp, dry piney herbs.
Serve: Serve over large ice cubes topped with premium Indian or Mediterranean tonic water, garnished with a fresh raspberry and a twist of lemon peel, or as a vibrant, dry foundation for a French 75, Clover Club, or Bramble variation.
