Whispering Angel Provence Rosé Double Magnum 3 Litre 2024

Whispering Angel Provence Rosé Double Magnum (3 Litre), Chateau D`Esclans, France, 2024

Grapes: Made from Grenache, Cinsault and Rolle (Vermentino). A blend of the best free run juices and press juices, fermented and aged in stainless steel with temperature control.

Producer Tasting Note:

Pale pink with a perfumed bouquet, which follows with elegant summer fruits. The palate is refreshing, refined and elegant with faint cherry nuances, together with enticing strawberry and berry fruit flavours. With a beautifully integrated balancing acidity, this wine is a must for those glorious summer (all year round) afternoons!

Critics' Tasting Notes:

"Classic aromas of grapefruit, peaches and cream with a very pretty floral extra, light white blossom and a touch of winter jasmine. On the palate the fruit is concentrated with a smooth silky texture, and a touch of textured dupion silk. Taut redcurrant acidity, with some pretty soft blue berries and abundant crunchy raspberries, lovely creamy weight and subtle salinity. 2024 looks like a premium vintage and this shows WA on top form."

Elizabeth Gabay MW, 2025

"As I talked with Sacha [Lichine - the Whispering Angel winemaker], he let me into a secret.  He thinks 2024 is one of the finest vintages he has ever seen in Provence.  And, if this wine is anything to go by, he is right.  This is a seamless, languid, soothing Whispering Angel with terrific balance and immediate appeal.  Sometimes, this wine takes a couple of months to get into its stride.  Sometimes, it misses summer altogether, falling into equilibrium in time for turkey at Christmas, although I suspect no one notices or even cares!  In 2024, it is impeccable from the off.  This is justifiably the most famous / best value rosé in the world and if anyone still thinks otherwise, one sip of this beguilingly lip-smacking wine will change their minds – Chapeau!"

Matthew Jukes, March 2025

"A well-rounded, focused and delicious rosé showing dried raspberries, frozen strawberries and mild spices on the nose. Medium-bodied with bright acidity. Balanced and driven, with a lively center palate and a persistent, flavorful finish."

92/100 points, James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com, March 2025

Chateau d’Esclans, a magical property, is situated in the heart of Provence, northeast of St. Tropez. With his acquisition of the Château in 2006, Sacha Lichine’s vision was to create the greatest rosés in the world, igniting the “Rosé Renaissance”. Now in its nineteenth vintage, Château d’Esclans is home to Whispering Angel.
