Whispering Angel 2020 Released
We are delighted to offer you the new 2020 vintage of Whispering Angel at our En Primeur prices which will be substantially lower than the retail price offered by other merchants.
The 2020 vintage is yet another step up in the history of this remarkable rosé, now a global super star, and the benchmark against which all other rosés are judged. During the harvest, all the grapes were picked at night to preserve freshness and flavour after a near perfect growing season. The result is a wine of beautiful balance and gentle aromatic flavours. It sings of the sun and everything we are all looking forward to.
We have offered Whispering Angel En Primeur before the rest of the UK wine trade for some years now thanks to our long relationship with Sacha Lichine and his inspirational team at Château D'Esclans.
