I have been tracking this wine since day one – and I mean eleven years ago when Sacha Lichine realised his dream to launch an elite Provence Rosé not just yesterday when this preview sample was delivered to my door. As every year rolls by Whispering Angel reaches out to thousands more palates. Matthew Jukes
The vineyards used for this eite rosé are set in and around the heart of La Motte de Provence....As always the trick with Whispering Angel is winemaker Patrick Léon and his son Bertrand’s incredible optical sorting disciplines and exceptional temperature control systems. The results are truly staggering. It appeals from the moment it is poured into your glass until the last sunset next summer. Matthew Jukes
Whispering Angel is today's worldwide reference for Provence Rosé. Its pale color is pleasing to the eye and draws one in. The rewarding taste profile is full and lush while being bone dry with a smooth finish. "A rosé with lemons, cantaloupe, orange peel and peaches. Just a hit of bitterness. Medium-bodied with hints of tannins. Fruity, yet not over the top. Crispy and creamy. Summer pleasures. Rating: 91 Points; James Suckling
