Whispering Angel 2025: tasting notes
Colour: very pale, bright and crystalline pink.
Nose: elegant and expressive, showing white peach, pink cherry, pomegranate and citrus with delicate floral notes.
Palate: round and silky on entry, becoming fresh and precise through the mid-palate. Bright acidity brings definition to the delicate texture, leading to an elegant, energetic finish with very little bitterness.
A Côtes de Provence by Château d'Esclans
Whispering Angel is produced from grapes selected from vineyards around the Esclans Valley and La Motte in Provence. The 2025 blend is based primarily on Grenache, Cinsault and Rolle (Vermentino). Careful grape and juice selection maintains the cuvée's distinctive style: very pale colour, vibrant fruit and freshness.
Fermented and aged in stainless steel
The grapes are harvested during the coolest hours and optically sorted. Following destemming and gentle crushing at low temperature, free-run and pressed juices are vinified separately in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks. Regular lees stirring adds volume and contributes to the wine's smooth, silky texture without the use of oak.
Whispering Angel 2025: 91/100 James Suckling
James Suckling awarded the 2025 vintage 91/100, highlighting its elegance, purity, peach and cherry character and fresh finish. Sacha Lichine himself describes this anniversary vintage as one of the finest editions of Whispering Angel produced.
Food pairing, serving and cellaring
Serve Whispering Angel 2025 at 8-12°C. It works equally well as an aperitif or with grilled fish, sushi, ceviche, Mediterranean salads, shellfish and mildly spiced Asian cuisine. Its freshness and fruit are best enjoyed within one to two years of the vintage.
12bouteilles recommendation
2025 is an excellent expression of the classic Whispering Angel style. More than simply an aperitif rosé, its texture and precision make it highly versatile at the table. Serve chilled rather than ice-cold to preserve its fruit and silky texture.

FAQ – Whispering Angel 2025
What is the difference between Whispering Angel 2025 and Rock Angel?
Whispering Angel emphasises fruit, freshness and immediate accessibility and is vinified entirely in stainless steel. Rock Angel is more structured and mineral, with part of the wine fermented and aged in French oak demi-muids. Whispering Angel is the more immediate choice, while Rock Angel offers greater gastronomic depth.
How does Whispering Angel 2025 compare with the 2024 vintage?
Both vintages are highly successful, but 2025 has particular significance as the 20th vintage of Whispering Angel. Château d'Esclans describes the 2025 as especially expressive and precise, balancing ripeness with freshness. The 2024 was also particularly successful and received 92/100 from James Suckling.
Is Whispering Angel a dry rosé?
Yes. Whispering Angel is firmly in the dry Provence rosé style. Its round, silky texture can create an impression of softness, but the wine is defined by freshness and a dry finish rather than sweetness.
Can Whispering Angel 2025 be served throughout a meal?
Yes. Versatility is one of its strengths. It works as an aperitif but has enough texture for sushi, ceviche, salmon, grilled fish, shellfish, Mediterranean dishes and mildly spiced Asian cuisine.
Should Whispering Angel 2025 be cellared?
This is not a rosé intended for extended ageing. Château d'Esclans recommends an ageing potential of one to two years. Drinking it relatively young will preserve the vibrant fruit, floral character and freshness that define the cuvée.
How does Whispering Angel differ from Château d'Esclans, Les Clans and Garrus?
Whispering Angel is the most immediately approachable of these premium rosés. Moving through Château d'Esclans, Les Clans and ultimately Garrus, the wines become progressively more structured, complex and suited to gastronomy and ageing, with an increasing role for oak fermentation and maturation.
