<p>However, the dominance of wines from the fairly dilute 2018 vintage resulted in a fairly bland range.The best wines showed greater intensity of flavour, boasting good weight, attractive ripeness and a complex array of fruits and spices, balanced by savoury garrigue notes, a clean mineral structure and often a saline acidity. They all reminded us of Provence and we praised them for their food-matching versatility.</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: center">&#8216;The better wines certainly improve with age&#8217;</p>
</blockquote>
<p>All but six wines were from the 2018 vintage, with five from the previous vintage (their 2018s not yet shipped) and the oaked Elevae 2016 from Gassier, only just released. While there is still considerable emphasis on drinking rosés young within the year, the better wines certainly improve with age as greater complexity and secondary flavours come to the fore.</p>
<p>There was some discussion as to whether some of the wines were actually still too young and might score better once more fruit emerges with age. Joanna Simon and I certainly seemed to like the mature fruit characters more than Nicolas Clerc MS, who also felt the wines from the five named regional terroirs for Côtes de Provence had greater energy, texture and minerality.</p>

<p>The majority of the wines tasted were between £10-£20, though price was not a strong indicator of quality. Among the best were supermarket favourites: Tesco’s Finest by Castel Frères and the Mirabeau Classic from Waitrose, along with wines from Gassier and Hecht &amp; Bannier, possibly because in this weaker vintage négociants came into their own with their ability to source and blend grapes from different sites. These held their own successfully against some of the pricier wines.</p>
<p>Only two of the wines were oaked – a contentious character in Provence, where the style is generally for fruit and freshness. Clerc queried if this was what was expected of a Provence rosé, but we all liked, in varying degrees, the more gastronomic weightiness of the style and the greater complexity of flavours.</p>
<p>The 2018 vintage was difficult in most regions, apart from the coast, and particularly for organic vineyards, which struggled with high humidity. This was noticeable, with Simon commenting that, for her, many of the wines lacked those classic Provence characters of minerality, herbal notes, grip and creamy ripeness and instead showed almost unripe fruit and extreme delicacy. Of these lighter-style wines, those based on <a href="https://www.decanter.com/wine/grape-varieties/cinsault/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cinsault</a> seemed to do well, while <a href="https://www.decanter.com/wine/grape-varieties/grenache-garnacha/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Grenache</a>-dominant wines felt a little coarse.</p>
<p>The vast majority of the wines were extremely pale pink, and in many cases almost creamy white. While this pale colour appears to be a character of the 2018 vintage, we did question at what point a rosé becomes a blanc de noir. While Simon said she judged rosé on the quality, whatever the colour, we did consider whether some of the wines might command a higher price had they been white, not rosé.</p>
<p>Finally, some crucial advice for rosé lovers: serving your wines ice cold does them no favours. The ideal temperature should be about 11°C to 15°C – between how you’d serve white and red wines. Sometimes decanting brings out greater complexity too.</p>

<h3><strong>About Côtes de Provence rosé</strong></h3>
<p>Already one of the country’s top rural tourist draws, this corner of southeast France is now the global benchmark for quality rosé wine production.</p>
<p>The once remote, and often inaccessible region of Provence started to open up to tourism in the 1950s, creating a market for local wines. Elizabeth David’s A Book of Mediterranean Food confirmed this love affair with southern flavours.</p>
<p>By the late 1980s, Peter Mayle’s humorous account of life in Provence and the atmospheric films Jean de Florette and Manon des Sources captured the imagination, and inland Provence was discovered.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-full wp-image-419452 aligncenter" src="https://keyassets.timeincuk.net/inspirewp/live/wp-content/uploads/sites/34/2019/06/Provence-map.jpg" alt="Côtes de Provence map" width="600" height="589" srcset="https://keyassets.timeincuk.net/inspirewp/live/wp-content/uploads/sites/34/2019/06/Provence-map.jpg 600w, https://keyassets.timeincuk.net/inspirewp/live/wp-content/uploads/sites/34/2019/06/Provence-map-135x133.jpg 135w, https://keyassets.timeincuk.net/inspirewp/live/wp-content/uploads/sites/34/2019/06/Provence-map-300x295.jpg 300w, https://keyassets.timeincuk.net/inspirewp/live/wp-content/uploads/sites/34/2019/06/Provence-map-320x314.jpg 320w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px" /></p>
<p>Tourism proved to be a big incentive in raising the quality of local wines. During the early 1990s, rosé progressed from being a by-product of red wine to a wine in its own right. The next decade saw refinement in winemaking, with increasingly fresh and elegant blends based on Grenache and Cinsault. The heatwave of 2003 was a major turning point, as consumers, beguiled by its colour and ice-cold temperature, turned to rosé. Rising sales have been recorded every year since, with a growth in Provence-style rosés from around the world.</p>
<p>In Provence itself, great progress is being made in research and development, particularly in how its range of terroirs creates different wine styles. Within Côtes de Provence, five regional areas have been acknowledged: the maritime, schist soils of La Londe, the schist and clay soils of Pierrefeu-du-Var, the limestone and altitude of Ste-Victoire, the volcanic soils of Fréjus and, as of 2019, the hot, dry region of Notre Dame des Anges.</p>
<p>Coteaux Varois benefits from slightly cooler sites, including some of the more northerly domaines, while Coteaux d’Aix spreads from hot coastal plains to the cool, northerly high-altitude (400m) vineyards where <a href="https://www.decanter.com/wine/grape-varieties/cabernet-sauvignon/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cabernet Sauvignon</a> does so well.</p>
<h3>Quality credentials</h3>
<p>Nearly 30 years of experience has given Provençal producers the edge on getting the right balance on harvesting dates to achieve rich, ripe fruit. Generally higher prices are often down to the fact that their yields are in many cases lower than other rosé producers, resulting in greater intensity and often the added complexity of savoury garrigue notes and firm mineral acidity.</p>
<p>In terms of grapes, Grenache and Cinsault continue to dominate, although <a href="https://www.decanter.com/wine/grape-varieties/mourvedre-grape-varieties/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mourvèdre</a>, <a href="https://www.decanter.com/wine/grape-varieties/shiraz-syrah/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Syrah</a> and Cabernet Sauvignon often appear, giving extra depth, and up to 20% of white varieties can be included for delicacy and acidity.</p>
<p>Hotter summers are pushing alcohol levels up, and extensive research on viticulture and site selection is being followed to maintain freshness. Use of oak remains contentious, with many producers opposed, while others have embraced its gastronomic potential. A few estates use amphorae and earthenware jarres, which contribute texture without losing fruit freshness.</p>
<p>Along with their rising quality levels, it comes as no surprise that rosés can remain fresh and vibrant for at least three to four years in bottle from vintage, slowly developing rounder, more complex characters, before hinting at more mature characters of dried fruits, bitter orange and nuts.</p>

<h3><strong>Provence rosé: The facts</strong></h3>
<p><strong>Production:</strong> Côtes de Provence (73.5%), Côteaux d’Aix-en- Provence (16.5%) and Côteaux Varois en Provence (10%) produce 96% – about 178 million bottles – of the total production of Provence</p>
<p><strong>Area:</strong> 26,680ha</p>
<p><strong>Wineries:</strong> 562 producers, 61 co-ops and 100 négociants</p>
<p><strong>Rosé dominance:</strong> 89% of production (5% of global rosé production), making Provence the largest rosé region in France, with 42% of AP wines</p>
<p><strong>Growing:</strong> Continuing demand for Provence rosé, and several smaller vintages, has led to a request, in 2018, to increase the appellation of Côtes de Provence by 300ha (1%).</p>
<hr />
<h3><strong>Provence rosé: Know your vintages</strong></h3>
<p>The vast majority of wines on the following pages will be consumed within the 12 months following production. However many will age well for two to three years (if not longer) if you wish to lay them down. Take note of the drink dates on each tasting note.</p>
<p><strong>2018</strong> A cool, wet spring followed by higher-than-usual humidity led to the unusual problem of mildew. Vineyards along the coast were the most successful, but elsewhere – especially in organic vineyards – yields were low and dilute.</p>
<p><strong>2017</strong> A small, hot, dry vintage producing ripe, concentrated fruit.</p>
<p><strong>2016</strong> Small, good-quality vintage with classic ripe, fresh fruit.</p>
<p><strong>2015</strong> A hot vintage, often lacking balance of fresh fruit and acidity.</p>
<p><strong>2014</strong> A cooler, damper vintage producing lighter, fresher rosés.</p>
