Description
"At Château d'Esclans, the harvest takes place in September, from dawn until noon, before the heat peaks. The grapes are selected ripe, harvested and placed carefully in small crates (10 kg) to avoid piling up and crushing the grapes. The grapes destined for Caves d'Esclans, Whispering Angel and in large proportions for Rock Angel are also harvested mechanically during the night, again to escape the daytime heat. An intense aromatic that never ceases to deploy waves of candied citrus, peach and passion fruit. Crisp acidity on the palate, with flavors of pear and ripe pineapple lining the mid-palate. Vertical, unctuous finish, with some spicy accents. A unique and inimitable texture. Elegance and power." - Winemaker Notes
"A complex and intense rosé with notes of oak spices to the elegant red berries and strawberries, together with hints of orange and grapefruit. Impressive purity and tension on the full-bodied palate, with an ethereal feel and a long, subtle and refreshing finish. Tactile, flavorful and elegantly structured. Very serious. Drink or hold." - 95 Points, James Suckling
