Château d'Esclans
The Palm By Whispering Angel Côtes de Provence Grenache Blend Rosé
Shocked by how much I enjoyed this D'Esclans Rosé. Peachy pink color with a peachy pear nose. Some slate-y minerality, high acid. Very delicate, slight finish. A fruit forward Provence rosé. Very drinkable on a bright and breezy spring day.

3 people found it helpfulApr 26th, 2019My local supermarket wine steward recommended this second label Rosé for its dryness. Pinkish and golden yellow. Faintly white floral nose. In the mouth - Peach skin, then grape and white peach, then a peach and lemon fruit finish. Reminded me of the fruit cocktail I ate as a kid (but the French kids always ate better at school than we did; life ain’t fair). Is it dry? Yes it mostly is, but more acid and dryish than dry. But not to call this fruit-forward would be ridiculous... A mineral touch in the finish as well

Not my speed... floral forward taste, almost a slight bitter kind of taste.
