French Gin, G'Vine Gin, From Cognac.

 By Laura Medina

The founder's son talked about how this wine grape gin came about, when his dad started gathering grape flowers to make gin twenty years ago.  Something so unheard of before, that the cops questioned his dad, "Is he collecting flowers to make perfume for L'Oreal?"

No. He was a cognac distiller switching to make gin in French wine country.

His G'Vine Gin is now one of the most popular gin brands in Spain, one of the biggest gin guzzlers.

G'Vine Gin is a wine grape-based gin made with juniper.  Gin can be made with anything, as long it includes juniper.

G'Vine Gin is like the gin version of Ciroc.  Wine grape sweet and thick yet so easy to gulp, on ice.

Gin is trending this year, such as Spain's Nordes' Gin, https://luxurist.blogspot.com/2021/08/the-last-of-summers-wine-and-gin-nordes.html
