Provence Rose has been the focus of winemaking in Provence for centuries. The rosés of Provence are distinctly different because of the unique character of the place where they originate – the soil, climate, and terrain of the vineyards. The physical environment of Provence – with its plentiful sunshine; its mistral winds; its Mediterranean Basin soils; and its hillsides covered with wild lavender, rosemary, and thyme – is reflected in the crisp flavors and zesty aromas of the rosé wines made there.
Cotes du Rhone. Avignon is the capital of Cotes du Rhone wines. Follow the river! Along the length of its winding waters and gentle banks, Côte du Rhône vineyards thrive across 171 rich and varied terroirs and vineyards, all bathed in the same bountiful sun. Chateauneuf du Pape, Gigondas, Vacqueras …to name but a few.
