at an average of 350 meters. Cool climate for the area with
big temperature swings between night and day.

Cinsault, Grenache and Rolle. The Syrah is vinified

TASTING NOTES:

Gorgeous pale pink color with soft and shiny
reflections.  This Crisp and precise 2015 has a lovely mineral
freshness with delicate aromas of citrus, red fruits
and white flowers.   On the palate the terroir reveals a pretty balanced and elegant volume along with a very nice tension
bringing length. The bouquet of aromas is persistent leading to
a long lasting fruity finish with an undertone salty
character.

Whispering Angel is a blend of Grenache, Rolle, Cinsault, Syrah, and Mourvedre grapes. Strikingly pale pink in color, the aromas are fresh and fruity. On the palate, it is bone dry through the finish. The name really suits the delicate nature of this wine.
