Provence
Provence is a picturesque wine region located in the southeastern part of France, known for its idyllic landscapes, Mediterranean climate, and world-renowned wines. With a winemaking history dating back over 2,600 years, Provence is one of the oldest wine-producing regions in France and is home to a diverse range of grape varieties. From the delicate and refreshing Rosé wines to the full-bodied and complex reds, Provence offers a unique and exciting wine experience for wine enthusiasts and novices alike. In this region, winemakers have long embraced sustainable and organic farming practices, further adding to the region's charm and appeal.
Provence boasts several notable appellations, including Côtes de Provence, Bandol, and Cassis. Côtes de Provence is the largest appellation in the region and is known for its high-quality Rosé wines, while Bandol is famous for its full-bodied and age-worthy reds made from the Mourvèdre grape variety. Cassis is a small appellation located near Marseille and is known for its crisp and refreshing white wines made from the Marsanne and Clairette grape varieties. Some of the leading producers in the region include Château d'Esclans, Domaines Ott, and Château de Pibarnon, all of which are known for their exceptional Rosé wines. Other notable producers include Domaine Tempier and Château Simone, both of which are renowned for their age-worthy reds and whites.

Matthew Jukes (18.5)The question I am most asked every year is, “Is Whispering Angel any good?”. My answer has never changed. Yes, of course, this wine is a triumph. It is made to exacting standards, and while there is more competition these days than ever, Whispering Angel and its Esclans portfolio pals still sit atop the pile. And while some think that you can save a few quid elsewhere, and they might be right, nothing comes close to Rock Angel. Instead of defending Whispering Angel’s honour, I prefer to advise curious rosé fiends to spend a fiver more and drink Rock. Rock is not a turbo-charged version of Whispering, although that is the line most people peddle. They say this because it sees some oak, making it seem like a Whispering+. But to me, Rock Angel is more clearly related to the Estate range of wines – those that come from the Chateau d’Esclans itself. All these wines (Chateau d’Esclans, Les Clans and Garrus) are made using oak, and their fruit is of the highest quality; hence, pricing ranges from £40-£140. Rock Angel swings in under £25 if you search hard enough, and I believe it is the finest value, ‘grand-tasting’ rosé around. It has a stunning volume of fruit, seamless, indulgent and impressively long. |
