Crafted primarily from the estate vineyards of Château d'Esclans and selected parcels in the Esclans Valley, the 2025 delivers the wine's signature precision: pale salmon in the glass, with a nose of fresh red fruit, white florals, and flinty mineral lift. The palate is refined and velvety, built around gentle spice, mineral intensity, and a sustained, textural finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNose\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDelicate red berry fruit — strawberry and raspberry — with white floral notes, gentle spice, and a characteristic flinty, mineral undertone that lifts the aromatics and signals the wine's structural intent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePalate\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRefined and precise, with a rich, velvety texture that distinguishes Rock Angel from lighter Provençal rosés. Red fruit mid-palate, fresh acidity, and a mineral thread that carries through from nose to finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFinish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSustained, clean, and mineral-driven. The flinty character endures, with excellent length for the style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBlend \u0026amp; Winemaking\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA blend of Grenache, Cinsault, Rolle\/Vermentino, and Syrah from estate and selected Côtes de Provence fruit. Harvesting is conducted in the morning for estate grapes and overnight for sourced fruit — avoiding daytime heat to preserve freshness. Grapes are optically sorted, gently crushed, and cooled to approximately 7–8°C before closed-circuit pressing to minimise oxidation. Vinification takes place primarily in temperature-controlled 600L oak demi-muids, with a proportion in stainless steel. Regular bâtonnage over approximately six months adds texture and complexity before bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProvence \u0026amp; Caves d'Esclans\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChâteau d'Esclans sits in the Esclans Valley in the heart of Côtes de Provence — the world's benchmark region for serious rosé. Caves d'Esclans has redefined what Provençal rosé can achieve, with Rock Angel sitting at the top of the estate's prestige range and demonstrating that structure, oak complexity, and longevity are entirely within reach of the style.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Caves D'Esclans","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49121112948985,"sku":"3760167973254-2025","price":64.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0633\/6820\/0441\/files\/rock-angel-rose-by-whispering-angel-2025-provence.webp?v=1789968690","url":"https:\/\/winesellersdirect.com.au\/products\/rock-angel-rose-caves-desclans-2025-cotes-de-provence","provider":"Wine Sellers Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
