Story: In the autumn of 2015 they began building a new storehouse. This new premises, which boasts the very latest technology, operates alongside the more traditional wine-making facilities and cellars. To their great surprise, during the building work they uncovered two statues depicting a couple of cheerful cherubs! The wine ‘Les deux anges’ (the two angels) draws its inspiration from these statues.
Expert rating: Vinous 92/100.
'Mint gives way to crushed apples and citrus zest as the 2022 Rosé Les Deux Anges blossoms in the glass. It is soft-textured and round in feel. A creamy wave of ripe melon and sweet spice envelopes the palate. It finishes wonderfully fresh and potent, with young peach and candied ginger notes. The Les Deux Anges is seductive.'
About the winery: Château de l'Escarelle's 100 hectares of vines flourish in the midst of 1,000 hectares of stunning, protected countryside in the very heart of Provence. Less than an hour's drive east of Aix-en-Provence, the estate is famous for its beautifully aromatic and enticing dry Rosé wines that are made from a blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Cinsault.
The vines are planted in limestone soil on terraces separated by dry-stone walls at an altitude of up to 500 meters, naturally following the shape of Escarelle's hills and the Montagne de la Loube. This variation in altitude contributes to the terroir's special character, enabling the vinification of very expressive, aromatic wines.
Yann Pineau, French businessman and environmental advocate, purchased the estate in 2014. Yann is passionate about wine and also deeply committed to preserving the unique natural environment of Chateau de l'Escarelle. Since purchasing the estate, Yann has made a significant investment in the property by updating the winery and also initiated the process of converting the entire estate to organic farming. Escarelle's first certified organic wines will be released in 2021.
Château de l'Escarelle currently holds the Haute Valeur Environnementale certification (HVE), France's most stringent environmental certificate.
