Descrizione

Il Whispering Angel Mathusalem del Chateau D'esclans è un rosé che incarna perfettamente l'eleganza e la raffinatezza tipiche della Provenza. Prodotto con una selezione meticolosa delle migliori uve Grenache, Rolle, Cinsault e Mourvèdre, questo vino è famoso per la sua straordinaria sapidità e freschezza.

Alla vista, si presenta con un delicato colore rosa pallido, che non tradisce la sua vibrante personalità. Al naso, offre un bouquet aromatico complesso e raffinato, dominato da note di frutti rossi come fragola e lampone, arricchite da sentori di agrumi e fiori bianchi che conferiscono ulteriore complessità.

In bocca, il Whispering Angel Mathusalem impressiona per il suo equilibrio impeccabile. Una freschezza vivace si fonde armoniosamente con una struttura morbida e rotonda, rendendo ogni sorso un'esperienza piacevole e rinfrescante. Le note fruttate percepite al naso si ripresentano al palato, accompagnate da una leggera mineralità che dona profondità e persistenza al gusto.

Un vino versatile, ideale sia come aperitivo che in abbinamento a piatti di pesce, insalate estive e piatti leggeri. La bottiglia formato Mathusalem, da 6 litri, non è solo un oggetto di grande impatto visivo, ma anche un'ottima scelta per grandi occasioni o per chi desidera un'esperienza di degustazione prolungata.

Lasciatevi trasportare dall'eleganza del Whispering Angel e scoprite perché è uno dei rosé più apprezzati al mondo.

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.
