Rock Angel is also produced by the Château d’Esclans’ estate in Provence. This sister wine to Whispering Angel is packaged in a similarly elegant way, with a silver seal on the bottle and beautifully rendered wing on the label.
Though both rosé's look similar in colour, the tasting notes describe Rock Angel as having a "more complex and structured taste profile" than Whispering Angel. The makers say that this places Rock Angel in "a more premium realm" with a recommended selling price or €40, compared to €25 for Whispering Angel.
Rock Angel is described as being "food driven", and experts say that it can be successfully paired with everything from pasta dishes to sushi.
She sounds perfect for giving as a gift – or for making Saturday nights in lockdown feel a little bit more special.
Located in the Esclans Valley in Provence, the Château d’Esclans’ estate spans 267 hectares. It primarily grows Grenache and Vermentino grapes across several different soil types, which the wine makers credit for their wines' complexity.
As well as the two Angel varieties, they also produce three more rosé options: The Château d’Esclans (€44), Les Clans (€71) and Garrus (€120). Let's call them cousins?
