The Birthplace of French Rosé

Provence

Provence is the undisputed capital of rosé wine, producing pale, elegant, dry rosés that have conquered the world. But this sun-blessed Mediterranean region offers far more: powerful red wines from Bandol, fresh whites from Cassis, and an ancient winemaking heritage dating back 2,600 years to the Greek settlers of Marseille. The lavender-scented landscapes, azure skies, and warm terroir create wines of effortless Mediterranean charm.
