The Wine
Provence is synonymous with lavender fields, sunshine and delicate pink rosés many regard as the best in the world. Since the influx of millionaires and movie stars in recent decades, it’s also become one of the pricier regions of France. Yet, happily, we can still enjoy the trappings of the Côte d’Azur lifestyle with wines like Domaine Pontfract. It comes from a 20-hectare estate with chalky, stony soil and sunshine all summer long. The prime ingredients of Provence rosé, Grenache, Cinsault and Carignan, love these conditions. Winemaker Xavier Paul gives the grapes a gentle pressing to extract a delicate colour and delightful, strawberry-scented aromas. Enjoy this pink on its own, or with olive tapenade or a fresh seafood platter.
