WITH summer months on the horizon, many people will be excited to enjoy a cold glass of Whispering Angel rose in the sun.
However, with bottles setting customers back £22.50 at Tesco, you may be interested in a £10.99 dupe now available at Lidl.



As of May 20, Lidl is now selling Breath of Paradise, which is also made from grapes located in the Côtes de Provence area.
Wines from this region have surged in popularity among Brits over the last few years, who are drawn to their pale pink hue, refreshing elegance, and easy pairing with summer dishes.
With the bank holiday weekend around the corner, it could be the perfect time to try the Breath of Paradise tipple.
However, Lidl has confirmed it will be available throughout the summer period.
Lidl’s Master of Wine, Richard Bampfield, says: “Well known for producing grapes that fuel the ‘premium dry rosé’ category, wines from the region of Provence are well known by both Brits and the French alike.
“However, with branded options often carrying a hefty price tag, most tend to reserve them for special occasions rather than include them in the weekly shop.
“At excellent value, Lidl’s Breath of Paradise is a summer game changer.
“Like any luxurious dry rosé alternative, it’s made primarily with Grenache grapes grown in Provence, giving it that iconic rosé hue and the classic Provençal aroma of fresh peach and wild herbs that we know and love.
“With a perfectly balanced acidity, body and dryness, each bottle of Breath of Paradise is effortlessly drinkable.
“Best served well chilled or even over a large ice cube, it’ll quench the thirst of rosé lovers at any occasion this summer.”
Giving fans of pale blush rosés a taste they can Côte d’Afford, this rosé may not be one to whisper about.
Whispering Angel is the flagship wine of Château d’Esclans, a vineyard north of Saint Tropez, France.
After exploding onto the market, it became a celebrity favourite – including among the Beckhams.
Adele even told US Vogue that her first lockdown food shop was for ketchup and Whispering Angel, and said it “turned me into a barking dog. It did not make me whisper.”

The hype is thanks to its gorgeous bottle, Instagrammable look and champagne-style branding.
Whispering Angel made rosé cool again, lots of sommeliers believe.
There was a period where rosé was viewed as inferior to its red and white counterparts.
But its popularity has rocketed over the last five years, partly thanks to Whispering Angel.
The hype isn’t set to die down either.
Global consumption of rosé will climb from 2.23 billion litres in 2020 to 2.63 billion in 2025, according to market analyst GlobalData.
Wine expert shares her view on Aldi's Whispering Angel dupe

Sainte Victoire is my favourite part of Provence to find personality filled yet great value Rosé.
Thanks to the altitude of the Sainte Victoire hillsides, the grapes get exposed to plenty of sunshine during the day but their ripeness is moderated by cooler evening temperatures.
This enables the wine to brim with intense, complex fruit which is balanced by elegant acidity and herbal finesse.
I am delighted that Aldi are highlighting an actual area of Provence as quality and flavour profiles can vary greatly – however I always know with Rosé from Sainte Victoire that I will not be disappointed.
