Our latest find comes from winemaker Denis Fourmilliers, who looks after a tiny plot of vines at the edge of the village of Collobrières in the Var.

Here, long days of Mediterranean sunshine and cooling sea breezes ripen his grapes to perfection.

Crafted from Cinsault, Grenache, and a splash of Syrah, this rosé has expressive red summer fruits on the nose and palate followed by a long, elegant finish.

Well balanced and refreshing, it is delicious served as an apéritif and as a partner for salads and our local Provençal dishes.

An excellent new find from a talented winemaker.

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.

Provence rosés are renowned for being some of the very finest. With lovely berry fruit and freshness, as well as a sophistication you'd expect of a region frequented by the rich and famous. Many tourists flock there every year too, to enjoy the sun, sea and beaches. Indeed, Provence has an ideal climate both for tourists and for growing vines. The region enjoys twice as much sunshine as London – yet relatively moderate temperatures even in the height of summer.

This delightful pink is from the Bréban family’s small domaine in the Côte d’Azur. Their southfacing vineyards are surrounded by wooded hillsides, with well drained soils. The result is a fine pink with subtle berry fruit. Spot on with salmon, salt and pepper squid or simple sipping.

Provence’s rosés have long been popular with the many tourists who flock to the region every year. Yet they offer much more than a holiday tipple. They can have real elegance and complex fruit, too. Perhaps that shouldn’t be surprising as Provence has an ideal climate for this refreshing style, with twice as much sunshine as London – yet relatively moderate temperatures even in the height of summer.

This delightful pink is from the Bréban family’s small domaine in the Côte d’Azur. Their vineyards are surrounded by wooded hillsides and have a south facing aspect with excellent, well drained soils to help fruit concentration. Rounded with savoury, subtle fruitiness, it’s spot on with poached salmon, salt and pepper squid or a spicy stir-fry.

Provence is France’s premier rosé region and Domaine de Paris is one of its most stylish and elegant. A previous vintage even gained mention in the prestigious US journal Wine Spectator: “Very good – a wine with special qualities. Dry and refined, with dried berry and cherry flavors and plenty of minerally notes.” The estate has been owned since 1900 by three generations of the Brun family.

50 year old Syrah and Grenache vines produce fruit of superb concentration and impeccable purity. There’s a tantalising steeliness to the structure, a flinty backbone coupled with wild strawberries and a lovely savoury note. Fine Provence rosé is not just for summer! The locals enjoy it all year round, on its own or with seafood, chicken or ratatouille.
