Provence Rosé Wine

The rosé wines of Provence are associated with summer. This wine-growing region in southeastern France is world-renowned for its rosés that epitomize the Provençal art of living. The most prestigious appellations are Côtes de Provence, Coteaux d'Aix-en-Provence, Coteaux Varois en Provence, and Bandol.

Côtes de Provence is the largest and most famous of the appellations, offering elegant and fruity rosés, perfect for accompanying summer meals. Coteaux d'Aix-en-Provence offers fresh and aromatic rosés, ideal for aperitifs and relaxing moments. Coteaux Varois en Provence is distinguished by its more structured and mineral rosés, thanks to its limestone and clay soils. Bandol, for its part, is renowned for its powerful and complex rosés, often made from Mourvèdre, offering intense aromas of red fruits and spices.
