Sourced from old-vine Grenache, Cinsault, Rolle, Syrah, and Carignan in the Esclans Valley, it is crafted using low-temperature vinification and aged on lees to preserve nuance and texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"483\" data-end=\"846\"\u003eUnder the direction of Sacha Lichine, the estate has redefined the potential of rosé, turning Whispering Angel into a globally recognised icon. This 2024 release delivers its signature pale hue and layered palate with subtle refinement; strawberries and pomegranate overlaid with rose petal, citrus, and crushed herbs. Quietly luxurious, this is rosé with intent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"136\" data-end=\"472\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"136\" data-end=\"146\"\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"146\" data-end=\"149\"\u003eChâteau d’Esclans sits northeast of St. Tropez in the hills of Provence. When Sacha Lichine acquired the property in 2006, he brought a new level of technical focus to a region known for its charm. Whispering Angel is now produced at scale, but every stage remains closely managed—from vineyard selection to final blending.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"474\" data-end=\"781\"\u003eGrapes are sourced from old vines across the Esclans Valley and surrounding sites, chosen for their structure and freshness. The winery uses a mix of manual and optical sorting, temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel, and regular lees stirring to build texture without sacrificing precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"783\" data-end=\"1032\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"783\" data-end=\"798\"\u003ePhilosophy:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"798\" data-end=\"801\"\u003eHarvest begins at sunrise to retain natural freshness.
