2018 Caves d'Esclans Whispering Angel Rose

Made from a blend of Grenache, Rolle, Cinsault, Syrah and Tibouren, Whispering Angel is one of Provence’s leading producers of Rose and after tasting this wine it’s easy to see why.

Translucent pale salmon pink colour with a watery hue. Expressive scents of peach, raspberry, cherry and musk blossom from the glass overlaying subtle stony characters. Intensely flavoured with delicious peach, raspberry and musk characters, the palate has a beautifully rounded feel underpinned by wet stones with a dash of spice evident on the dry finish. Providing plenty of freshness is vibrant acidity. Excellent concentration and depth with a long ravishing aftertaste.
Drink over the next 1-2 years.
Alc. 13%

Other Reviews….
This is the real McCoy for this price point. The freshness here is undeniable, as it exudes citrus, rose petals, nectarines, sliced dill and coriander and the signature strawberries and cream. Flavorful and intense on the medium- to full-bodied palate yet so very restrained and elegant. Super-value wine as always. Drink now.
