The first traces of the chateau’s site date back to Gaullist times during which its location served as a lookout point to spot intruders coming by boat into the Gulf of Frejus. The chateau’s cellar structure or foundation (known today as the oldest in the region) housed an original Chateau that was given by the Comte de Provence to Gérard De Villeneuve, in 1201. The current chateau, inspired by Tuscan Villa design, was built during the mid 19th century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChâteau d’Esclans lies in the center of the Department of the Var, where the majority of Provence AOC rosé is produced. The land was occupied as long as 2500 years ago when it was probably used as a lookout point for intruders sailing into the Gulf of Frejus. The original château—of which now only the cellar remains—dates back to before the 12th century. In 1201, Gérard De Villeneuve, part of a wealthy family from Marseille, took ownership of the château and the majority of the surface area of the Vallée d’Esclans that would eventually be sold off in lots. Two brothers, Sauver Louis Ranque and Francois Alexandre Ranque, were the next to own the château, known then as Terre d’Esclans.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 1875, they sold the property to Joseph Toussaint Caussemille, who manufactured wooden matches near Marseilles. In 1955, the Perraud family owned the property until 1994. At that time, it was purchased by a Swedish pension fund that produced a small amount of wine and the remaining grapes were sold to neighboring winemakers. Sacha Lichine aquired Château d’Esclans in 2006. Today there are 108 acres (44 ha) of vineyards. The total proprety has 659 acres (267 ha).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe primary grape grown on the property is Grenache followed by Vermentino. Other grapes include Cinsault, Merlot, Mourvèdre, Syrah, and Tibouren. The château is known for its old Grenache vines which produce grapes that offer greater concentration of flavor than do the younger vines. As the elevation to where the lots are situated increases, so do the age of the vines. At the highest elevated lot vines are as old as 90 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ellis of Richmond","offers":[{"title":"1 Double Magnum 1x3L","offer_id":20257811824699,"sku":"","price":199.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0131\/6713\/2731\/products\/whispering_angel_double_magnum_64dedaac-420d-4a5b-85cd-e9dad1412db9.png?v=1563531112"},{"product_id":"nyetimber-classic-cuvee-nv-england","title":"Nyetimber Classic Cuvée NV England","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff0000;\"\u003e£39.95\u003c\/span\u003e per bottle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV 12%\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGRAPE VARIETY\u003cbr\u003e50 to 60% Chardonnay\u003cbr\u003e13 to 40% Pinot Noir\u003cbr\u003e10 to 20% Pinot Meunier\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe pale-golden hue and fine bubbles make our flagship Classic Cuvee Multi-Vintage the ideal occasion-ready drink – whether it’s toasting a big birthday or simply finishing a busy week.

In 1962, it was mostly prune orchards and pastures when Maggie and Harry Wetzel purchased a large portion of a homestead built by Cyrus Alexander, the valley`s nineteenth century namesake. Hank Wetzel, oldest son of Maggie and Harry, produced the vineyard`s first wine in 1975.

For 25 years, he divided his time between the vineyard and his dermatology practice until 1985 when he retired from medicine in order to focus on the vineyard. David Bruce Winery was one of the 12 Californian wineries to participate in the now famous 1976 `Judgment of Paris` in which California Cabernets and Chardonnays outscored French Bordeaux and Burgundies in a blind tasting.

Pinot Meunier dominates the `Vallee de la Marne`, an area susceptible to frosts, which it is more able to withstand, due to later budding.

For three generations the Lombard family have owned vineyards in Hautvillers. With the acquisition of estate vineyards located in the Premiers Crus, the family owns 10 hectares of vineyards located in the Montagne de Reims and in the Côte des Bars. All of the vineyards of the estate are farmed sustainably with some of them in organic conversion.

The style of the Champagne Lombard is unique, characterized with sharpness and minerality coming from the Chardonnay of the Côte des Blancs and subtle fruitiness and rich complexity from the Pinot Noir of the Montagne de Reims.

The first traces of the chateau’s site date back to Gaullist times during which its location served as a lookout point to spot intruders coming by boat into the Gulf of Frejus. The chateau’s cellar structure or foundation (known today as the oldest in the region) housed an original Chateau that was given by the Comte de Provence to Gérard De Villeneuve, in 1201. The current chateau, inspired by Tuscan Villa design, was built during the mid 19th century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChâteau d’Esclans lies in the center of the Department of the Var, where the majority of Provence AOC rosé is produced. The land was occupied as long as 2500 years ago when it was probably used as a lookout point for intruders sailing into the Gulf of Frejus. The original château—of which now only the cellar remains—dates back to before the 12th century. In 1201, Gérard De Villeneuve, part of a wealthy family from Marseille, took ownership of the château and the majority of the surface area of the Vallée d’Esclans that would eventually be sold off in lots. Two brothers, Sauver Louis Ranque and Francois Alexandre Ranque, were the next to own the château, known then as Terre d’Esclans.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 1875, they sold the property to Joseph Toussaint Caussemille, who manufactured wooden matches near Marseilles. In 1955, the Perraud family owned the property until 1994. At that time, it was purchased by a Swedish pension fund that produced a small amount of wine and the remaining grapes were sold to neighboring winemakers. Sacha Lichine aquired Château d’Esclans in 2006. Today there are 108 acres (44 ha) of vineyards. The total proprety has 659 acres (267 ha).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe primary grape grown on the property is Grenache followed by Vermentino. Other grapes include Cinsault, Merlot, Mourvèdre, Syrah, and Tibouren. The château is known for its old Grenache vines which produce grapes that offer greater concentration of flavor than do the younger vines. As the elevation to where the lots are situated increases, so do the age of the vines. At the highest elevated lot vines are as old as 90 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fine Wine Direct","offers":[{"title":"1 Jeroboam 1x3L","offer_id":31606903046179,"sku":"","price":149.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0131\/6713\/2731\/products\/whispering_angel_double_magnum_a12f6ff9-528f-401e-905a-462c55b7cf78.png?v=1579105598"},{"product_id":"laurent-perrier-cuvee-rose-brut-nv-champagne-gift-case","title":"Laurent-Perrier Cuvée Rosé Brut NV Champagne - Gift Case","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"product-info__symbol\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e£69.95 \u003c\/span\u003eper bottle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info__symbol-label\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV 12%\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info__symbol-label\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info__symbol-label\"\u003eFounded in 1812, the Laurent-Perrier Champagne house was inherited and revived by Bernard de Nonancourt who had fought with French resistance in World War 2 as a leader of a maquis cell.

The first traces of the chateau’s site date back to Gaullist times during which its location served as a lookout point to spot intruders coming by boat into the Gulf of Frejus. The chateau’s cellar structure or foundation (known today as the oldest in the region) housed an original Chateau that was given by the Comte de Provence to Gérard De Villeneuve, in 1201. The current chateau, inspired by Tuscan Villa design, was built during the mid 19th century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChâteau d’Esclans lies in the center of the Department of the Var, where the majority of Provence AOC rosé is produced. The land was occupied as long as 2500 years ago when it was probably used as a lookout point for intruders sailing into the Gulf of Frejus. The original château—of which now only the cellar remains—dates back to before the 12th century. In 1201, Gérard De Villeneuve, part of a wealthy family from Marseille, took ownership of the château and the majority of the surface area of the Vallée d’Esclans that would eventually be sold off in lots. Two brothers, Sauver Louis Ranque and Francois Alexandre Ranque, were the next to own the château, known then as Terre d’Esclans.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 1875, they sold the property to Joseph Toussaint Caussemille, who manufactured wooden matches near Marseilles. In 1955, the Perraud family owned the property until 1994. At that time, it was purchased by a Swedish pension fund that produced a small amount of wine and the remaining grapes were sold to neighboring winemakers. Sacha Lichine aquired Château d’Esclans in 2006. Today there are 108 acres (44 ha) of vineyards. The total proprety has 659 acres (267 ha).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe primary grape grown on the property is Grenache followed by Vermentino. Other grapes include Cinsault, Merlot, Mourvèdre, Syrah, and Tibouren. The château is known for its old Grenache vines which produce grapes that offer greater concentration of flavor than do the younger vines. As the elevation to where the lots are situated increases, so do the age of the vines. At the highest elevated lot vines are as old as 90 years.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Château d'Esclans","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31815253557283,"sku":"WA2019-1x75cl","price":19.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0131\/6713\/2731\/products\/whispering_angel_41bacb40-3a52-4b33-ba9f-b552cf40cf0b.jpg?v=1584293927"},{"product_id":"copy-of-rock-angel-rose-2019","title":"Rock Angel Rosé 2020\/2021","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\" mce-data-marked=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOW 2021 VINTAGE!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: line-through;\"\u003e£39.95\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cstrong\u003enow\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e£29.95\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e per bottle\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE TIMES - Drink Pink!
