Whispering Angel Rosé: an iconic rosé from Provence

‘Like an angel peeing on your tongue’, an easy one! But this rosé is just that delicious.

At wijnen.nl, we have quite a few rosés from Provence! The Château d’Esclans Whispering Angel Rosé is one of our personal favorites: an elegant and refined rosé from Provence. The wine is known for its pale color, fresh style, and soft structure. On the nose and palate, you will find red summer fruit, citrus, peach, and subtle floral notes.

Whispering Angel is made from typical Southern French grapes, with Grenache as the key base. This grape provides juicy fruit and roundness, while other grapes add extra freshness, finesse, and spiciness. The result is a dry Provence rosé with a beautiful balance between fruit and freshness.
