Discovering the wine region of Les Baux-de-Provence

Les Baux de Provence is a small Village perched in the Alpilles region of Provence, in southeastern France. It is known for its high quality red and rosé wines, produced mainly from Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre. The classic Baux de Provence wine is a Deep red with aromas of mountain herbs, black olives, violets and stewed blackberries. The Baux de Provence appellation did not cover white wines until a few years ago.

Today, a tiny amount of white wine is produced each year under this appellation, from a combination of classic southern French grape varieties. The predominance of red wines is unusual in Provence, whose vineyards and appellations are heavily focused on rosé. Only a quarter of the wines of Les Baux de Provence are rosé. The village is perched on the flat-topped limestone promontory from which it takes its name (baou means "rocky spur" in Provençal dialect) 100 m above the vineyards and olive groves below.
