Provence

Provence is the oldest wine producing region of France with a perfect sunny, dry and warm Mediteranean climate cooled down by the frequent Mistral wind. The Greeks were the first to plant grapevines in Provence more than 2,000 year ago and were already known for making rosé wines(!) The region has also a long history of blending grape varieties for their winemaking, such as Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault, Cabernet-Sauvignon, Carignan, Bourboulenc and Mourvedre to name a few. Today, rosé accounts for more than 80% of Provence wine production, it gained in the past 10-15 years the reputation for being among the best Rosés produced in the world, showcasing refreshing minerality, refined floral aromas with fruity and citrussy flavors. These wines are best to enjoy chilled during the hottest months of the year, at summer parties, with a barbecue, with seafood or just with refreshing salads. Some people drink them also year around.
