“Rosé from Provence, France? Are they all the same? Provence is the only wine region in the world devoted to Rosé. The wine reflects the terroir of the hills, coastal regions and flora of this area.” Noelle Hale, Program Director for the Napa Valley Wine Academy is our guest to explain.
“Rosé wine was born in Provence. Provence is actually not an ocean of grapevines. It is, instead, a series of small blocks and terraces, scattered here and there, and harmoniously intermingling with cabins, almond and olive trees, downy oaks, fields of lavender, umbrella pines and more…There are three appellations of the Vins de Provence.”
“The craze for rosé wine extends beyond France’s borders. As a result, Vins de Provence exports more than 55 million bottles of rosé each year. The United States adores Provence rosés, purchasing approximately 37% of the volume sold abroad.”
Rosé pairs well with most foods.
