“From the Tank®” — high-quality low-intervention wine at a great price. And it’s good for the planet, too!
“From the Tank®” was born out of the old school idea of going to the local winery with a big empty jug to fill up with easy-drinking juice. This is a tradition that stretches back for ages in France.
Now, we are pleased to serve From the Tank® in keg as well as box. The keg solution is ideal for the restaurant industry– no more dumping of open bottles at the end of the shift; perfect serving temperature with every glass; and efficiency behind the bar.
We’ve chosen to use one-way KeyKegs for our wines, a recyclable option that does not involve any deposit or empty kegs taking up valuable restaurant storage space. When a keg is empty, simply deflate it, crush with your foot, and throw it in the recycling bin. KeyKegs also stack very easily and take up very little storage space.
Economical.
Ecological.
Delicious.
FROM THE TANK: Estezargues Red Keg
20 liter slimline KeyKeg
Age of Vines: 20 to 80 years
Soil: Red clay based and stone strewn
Varieties: Grenache, Syrah, Carignan
Making of: The grapes are de-stemmed, crushed and the fruit undergoes fifteen days of maceration to extract enough body and flavors from the skins. Fermented with neutral yeast in concrete tanks where the wine is then stored. Bottled on-demand to ensure maximum freshness, with light filtration and no fining.
Tasting Note: Garnet in the glass with shimmering highlights. Elegant notes of smoky red fruit, violet, sweet herb and a note of baking chocolate. The palate is rich with ripe cherry and berry flavors, and a mineral note that is followed by supple acidity and velvety tannins. This is a very expressive red with a great concentration of fruit and yet it is never overly extracted. The wine finishes with floral notes and a dash of black pepper.
