Rock Angel is partially barrel fermented in large oak barrels and made from Grenache, Cinsault and Rolle (Vermentino). This rosé bears a more complex and structured taste profile than Whispering Angel bringing it into a more premium realm giving rosé lovers a bigger and richer wine that is fabulous as an aperitif or paired with a broad range of fine cuisine. If you like the minerality of a Sancerre, you will love this wine.

” 2019 Rock Angel has found its roots. It possesses more than a little gravitas while still drinking well from the off… the finest vintage to date. ” 18/20

” Rounded and rich with flavors that mingle comfortably together. Ripe aftertaste. ” 90/100
Roger Voss (Wine Enthusiast)

” It might be young but there’s a power to this wine. It’s crisp and clean on the nose, and the fruit waits until its needed. ”
Tony Harries (Winefullness)

” A rosé with substance. Medium to full body and a creamy texture. Flavorful and beautiful. ” 93/100
James Suckling

” A little more soft rock than punk thanks to a little time in the barriques giving a slightly more rounded mouthful ”

As a négociant and vinificateur (winery), Caves d’esclans identifies vineyards, grapes and wines from Château d’Esclans as well as local growers to make what has reputedly become the world’s greatest rosé. As our objective is to obtain the best quality grapes and wines, we have created relationships with the local grape growers, committed beside Caves d’Esclans, whose vineyards are treated with the same high standards of quality as are the vineyards of Château d’Esclans.
