Crafted from Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, Rolle, and Carignan, this 6L format brings both scale and elegance to one of France’s most recognisable rosé wines.

Layers of strawberry, pomegranate, and nectarine are carried by fine acidity and a subtle saline edge, giving the wine both texture and precision. The large-format 6L bottle offers an ideal presentation for long lunches, celebrations, and warm-weather entertaining, while preserving the freshness and clarity that define Whispering Angel’s house style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1039\" data-end=\"1215\"\u003eBalancing fruit purity with a crisp mineral finish, this Provence rosé is equally suited to seafood, Mediterranean dishes, or simply served chilled alongside summer gatherings.\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.
