British Airways has announced plans for an exclusive Whispering Angel ros\u00e9 bar, inviting customers to enjoy the refreshing French tipple ahead of their flight from Heathrow Terminal 5<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The bespoke bar, which will exclusively offer Caves d\u2019Esclans\u2019 Whispering Angel ros\u00e9, will be located in the airline\u2019s lounge at Terminal 5 B at London Heathrow – often referred to as one of Heathrow\u2019s best kept secrets.<\/p>\n

The bar, coloured pale pink to emulate the light tones of the ros\u00e9 served, is expected to open this summer. The opening will coincide with a refresh of the airline\u2019s B gates lounge which will include new and reupholstered furniture, as well as a refreshed layout.<\/p>\n

Across the rest of the airline\u2019s Club (business class) lounges at Heathrow and Gatwick, eligible British Airways\u2019 customers can enjoy The Pale ros\u00e9, which is produced by the same winemakers as Whispering Angel. Whispering Angel is currently available in British Airways\u2019 First and Club (business class) lounges.<\/p>\n

Ch\u00e2teau d\u2019Esclans\u2019 Whispering Angel boasts a delicate Proven\u00e7al pink hue, spoiling customer with sun-kissed creamy flavours of peach and raspberries, with refreshing citrus undertones and a smooth, dry finish.<\/p>\n

Calum Laming, British Airways\u2019 Chief Customer Officer, said: \u201cOur customers are already telling us how much they enjoy the Whispering Angel ros\u00e9 we are serving in our lounges, so we are thrilled to be opening an exclusive Whispering Angel bar. We truly believe this will be a massive hit with customers and we are excited that its introduction will coincide with a newly refurbished lounge in the satellite at London Heathrow Terminal 5 B gates.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Chateau d’Esclans Team said: \u201cWhispering Angel is incredibly proud to be working in partnership with British Airways. We are extremely excited to launch this beautiful bar and look forward to being able to offer British Airways’ customers a delicious glass of ros\u00e9 before they fly.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The bar is part of British Airways\u2019 continued elevation of its drinks offering, following the appointment of a full time Master of Wine \u2013 one of only 415 Masters of Wine in the world and believed to be the only one appointed by an airline. March 2023 saw the introduction of four new English sparkling wines served on board. The four English Sparkling wine options are available on a quarterly rotation, changing every three months. Rich in variety, customers will be able to choose from two sparkling options when travelling in Club World, including the current Champagne resident Heidsieck & Co. Monopole Silver Top Non-Vintage Champagne, and now an exclusive English Sparkling wine option.<\/p>\n

On board, the current English Sparkling is Digby Fine English Brut NV, and from July the airline will serve the Balfour Ros\u00e9 de Noirs, grown on the Balfour Hush Heath Estate in Kent, and made only from red grapes. This lighter ros\u00e9 sparkling wine is an exclusive blend for British Airways, making it only available at 35,000ft for customers in the airline\u2019s Club World cabin.<\/p>\n

From October, Simpsons Chalklands Cuvee Brut NV, also from Kent will be available for three months, so customer can end the year with a toast. Looking to the new year, from January 2024, customers can try Wiston Estate Brut NV from the South Downs, is refreshing in flavour, with citrus and toasty notes.<\/p>\n
