Description

Dry pink wine from the Cotes de Provence, where the pale, barely-blushing style has become a template for the category. This is the 2025 vintage of Whispering Angel, Chateau d'Esclans' rosé drawn from the Southern Rhone red varieties that thrive across Provence, made in the restrained, food-friendly mold the region is known for.

The nose leans floral and delicate, cherry blossom and pink cherry pit alongside peach skin and a whisper of cantaloupe. It lands medium-bodied, with fresh, round acidity and a saline, almost crushed-seashell note running underneath. There's real texture here, and the finish firms up with a touch of grip that keeps everything precise rather than soft. Pure and balanced, the kind of rosé where each element sits exactly where it should.

James Suckling

An elegant and scented nose of pink cherry pits, peach skin and cherry blossoms. Medium-bodied with fresh, round acidity and a textured finish. Elegant and pure finish. (James Suckling, February 2026)

The 2025 Rosé Whispering Angel 20th Vintage is a very solid example of Provençal Rosé, particularly compelling at this scale of production and availability. Notes of cantaloupe, yellow peach and crushed seashell unfurl gently on the precise, fresh, notably balanced palate. A bit of grip firms up the finish. Everything is in the right place. (Vinous, June 2026)
