G’Vine Floraison 1L | French Gin

G’Vine Floraison is a fresh, floral and beautifully smooth French gin with a very different character from a traditional London Dry.

Instead of grain spirit, G’Vine is made with a grape-based spirit from the Cognac region. This gives the gin a softer, rounder texture from the very beginning.

Its signature ingredient is even more unusual: vine blossom. These tiny flowers appear for only a few days each year and are hand-picked before being infused into the spirit.

Juniper is joined by lime, cardamom, ginger, coriander, liquorice, cubeba and nutmeg. The result is aromatic and elegant, with floral notes, fresh citrus and gentle spice rather than an overpowering hit of juniper.

On the palate, Floraison is smooth and rounded, while the citrus and botanicals keep it fresh. It’s an excellent choice if you find traditional gin a little too dry or juniper-heavy.

Serve it with plenty of ice and a good tonic for a fresh, elegant Gin & Tonic with a distinctly French personality.

🍸 How to Enjoy

Floraison is particularly good in a classic Gin & Tonic.

Fill a large glass with plenty of ice, add G’Vine Floraison and top with a quality tonic. A few fresh grapes make a simple and very appropriate garnish, picking up the grape character behind the gin.

Don’t overload it with garnish — the floral character is one of the best things about Floraison, so let it show.

It also works beautifully in lighter gin cocktails where you want freshness and aroma rather than powerful juniper.

About G’Vine

G’Vine was created in France by Jean-Sébastien Robicquet, founder of Maison Villevert in the Cognac region.

The idea behind G’Vine was to approach gin from a wine and grape-growing perspective. Instead of starting with the grain spirit traditionally used for gin, the base is made from grapes, with Ugni Blanc playing the leading role.

The most distinctive part of the story comes directly from the vineyard.

For just a short period each year, grapevines produce tiny flowers before the fruit begins to develop. Some of these vine blossoms are carefully hand-picked and used to create the aromatic ingredient at the heart of Floraison.

The remaining botanicals are prepared in separate groups before distillation. They are then brought together with the grape spirit and vine blossom to create the finished gin.

This unusual approach gives Floraison its signature character. Juniper is certainly present, but it shares the stage with flowers, citrus and spice.

The result is a modern French gin that feels softer, more aromatic and more rounded than many traditional dry gins.
