Description

Whispering Angel - Magnum - Chateau D'Esclans è un rosé proveniente dalla rinomata regione della Provenza, in Francia. Prodotto dalla prestigiosa cantina Chateau D'Esclans, questo vino è rinomato per la sua eleganza e raffinatezza. Il formato magnum esalta le caratteristiche uniche di questo rosé, permettendo una maturazione più omogenea e una preservazione ottimale degli aromi.

Il bouquet olfattivo offre note delicate di frutti rossi, pesca bianca e un tocco di agrumi, intrecciate con sentori floreali e una leggera mineralità. Al palato, Whispering Angel si distingue per la sua struttura setosa, una piacevole freschezza e un equilibrio armonioso tra acidità e componente fruttata. Il finale è pulito e rinfrescante, concedendo una sensazione di raffinata leggerezza.

Questo rosé si abbina perfettamente con piatti a base di pesce, insalate di mare, formaggi freschi e antipasti leggeri. È ideale da servire ben fresco, soprattutto durante le calde giornate estive, ma la sua versatilità lo rende adatto anche per occasioni speciali durante tutto l'anno. Il formato magnum non solo offre una presentazione imponente sulla tavola, ma garantisce anche una straordinaria esperienza di degustazione condivisa.

Winery history

The estate has ancient origins and is known as a benchmark wine in the Côtes de Provence. Sacha Lichine acquired and revitalized the estate in 2005–2006, bringing it to a global audience; in 2019 a majority stake was acquired by Moët Hennessy/LVMH. Under Lichine's leadership the estate introduced modern production practices and a range of cuvées with both commercial appeal and premium profiles.

Production philosophy

The approach is to elevate rosé to a gastronomic wine: targeted early-morning harvests, hand selection and optical sorting of the clusters, and the combined use of vinification in stainless steel and in casks to create wines that are fresh yet structured. The winery emphasizes technological control and careful grape selection to maintain consistency of style across vintages.

Terroir and vineyards

The estate is located in the valle d'Esclans, in the commune of La Motte-en-Provence, within the protected AOC Côtes de Provence area. The terrain is typically Mediterranean, with mixed soils planted with old vines.
