Happy Thursday everyone! Almost to Friday! I decided to break up the marathon review of reds a bit by trying a rosé given it was warm here in the Dallas area this past weekend. I purchased the 2017 Château d’Esclans Whispering Angel Rosé from France. This had strong hints of peach and melon and was a relatively rich and dry rosé. This would pair well with some salads, lighter fish or mild to medium cheeses. The Côtes de Provence region of France is where this rosé originates. This large terrain is located in the southeastern region of France where they make many rosés and other wines. Whispering Angel is an interesting name and not at all applicable to me. My attempts at whispering are not like that of an angel and have the opposite effect of what I intend. I find that lowering the pitch of my voice is, in fact, not whispering and not at all cherubic in nature but it is what it is. Nonetheless, I would recommend this rosé and you can find it at Target or some other grocery stores for just under $20 per bottle.
