Renais Gin 70cl 40% ABV

Why it stands out

Renais takes its cues from Burgundy rather than the usual dry-gin playbook. It is made from upcycled French wine grapes and built around ingredients that echo the region’s terroir, including pressed Grand Cru grapes and Kimmeridgian stone. Cultivated in France and distilled in England, it brings a clear vineyard influence to the glass without losing the structure you want from a good gin.

Flavour profile

This is a fresh, polished style with ripe grape on the nose, followed by bright citrus zest and a smooth mineral edge on the palate. Juniper is present, but it sits within the wider profile rather than dominating it, giving you a gin that feels layered, clean and distinctive.

Good to know

At 40% ABV, Renais is easy to work with in a classic G&T, a Martini or a Negroni. If you like your gin with freshness, texture and a more considered botanical profile, this is a very smart bottle to have on hand.
