The wine region of Coteaux de Pierrevert
Provençal AOC of the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence (1998) around Manosque, the highest vineyard of Provence (400–500 m on the Durance hillsides), cool Mediterranean interior climate. Rosés (~53%) based on Grenache and Syrah with Cinsault and Mourvèdre: pale and crunchy with strawberry, raspberry, citrus, garrigue and floral notes, fresh altitude acidity — summery aperitif. Supple, fruity reds. Lively whites from Vermentino, Clairette and Marsanne.
The wine region of Provence
World capital of dry, refined rosé (~90% of production). Pale rose-petal colour, delicate nose of fresh red fruits (strawberry, raspberry, redcurrant), citrus (pink grapefruit), white flowers and a mineral touch, taut and thirst-quenching palate — the Mediterranean aperitif par excellence. Blends of Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, Tibouren and Mourvèdre. Fleshy Bandol reds from Mourvèdre (leather, garrigue, age-worthy), straight Cassis whites.
