For a great value rival to the wines of Provence, look to Bordeaux. Here, among the classic family estates and old vines, dry, elegant and fruit-filled rosé shines. Try this 2019 – brimful of strawberry, gooseberry and pink grapefruit flavours.
Stretching south from the Rhône to the Med, the Camargue is a beautiful landscape, renowned for wild white horses, flamingoes and a wonderful national park. Less well known are its great wines. This Provence style pink comes from the historic Domaine Lamargue, where wine has been made since the 12th century.
Winemaker there is Nicolas Gornes, who trained in New Zealand, California, then with the Rothschild estate. He works with Jean Christophe, who was one of France’s first growers to go organic and Philippe Combe, who resigned as president of his local co-operative to support the organic movement.
Amazingly this fabulous elegant pink is made from 11 native red and white varieties. Fresh berries, mandarin and peach, it's a delectable rosé.
