Steely amber color. Inviting, creamy aromas and flavors of lemon custard cake, strawberry parfait, pressed flowers, rose hips, and and pomegranates with a satiny, vibrant, dry-yet-fruity medium-to-full body and a smooth, complex, medium-long finish displaying accents of sour cherry and apple purees, macadamia brittle, hint of lava stone, and white tea with chewy, fine, fruit tannins and no oak flavor. A rich and rewarding Provence Rosé with amazingly inviting aromas and elegantly balanced flavors on the palate.

About
Provence Rose
Vin de Pays Rosé are rosé wines that are designated as a Vin de Pays or country wine from one of about 50 different departments (territories) in France. One of the most popular of these is Vin de Pays d'Oc from the Languedoc-Roussilon area in southern France, while Vin de Pays Vignobles de France represents the entire winemaking territories of France.

There are several red varieties that can be used to make a Vin de Pays Rosé, which are produced with minimal skin contact, as with most rosés. These varieties include Grenache, Cinsault, Mourvèdre, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot.

These rosés are light to medium-bodied and generally are dry or off-dry with moderate tannins and an earthy finish. Pair with simple bistro food such as salads or roast chicken.
