If you have questions about the Provence region, rosé, or any of our wineries, please use the contact information on the back cover to follow up with us. Roque Pertusa President, Provence Wine Council Rosé: A Rising Star Rosé is experiencing a global renaissance. In the U.S., retail sales of imported rosé wines have seen dynamic growth for seven years running, with sales in 2011 increasing at more than seven times the rate of total table wines. Imported rosé sales jumped more than 26% on dollars last year, compared to only 3.7% for total table wines (Nielsen). And according to the French trade commission, exports of rosé François Millo Director, Provence Wine Council wines from Provence to the U.S. have seen double-digit growth rates each year since 2003. The largest percentage gains were recorded between 2010 and 2011, when exports grew 62% on volume and 49% on value. For the three years from 2008 through 2011, the average annual growth rate was 39% on volume and 35% on value. Provence Rosé exports to U.S. Volume in Liters 2,000,000 1,500,000 1,000,000 500,000 0 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 Year 3 The Birthplace of Rosé Provence, the oldest winegrowing region in France, has been making rosé wines since 600 BC. Today Provence devotes 87% of its Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée (AOC) wine production to rosé. The vast majority of these wines come from three appellations: » Côtes de Provence AOC, which includes three sub-regions: » Côtes de Provence Sainte-Victoire AOC » Côtes de Provence Fréjus AOC » Côtes de Provence La Londe AOC » Coteaux d’Aix-en-Provence AOC » Coteaux Varois en Provence AOC While the quintessential Provence rosé is pale and dry, the region produces wines with striking aromatic and stylistic diversity. Distinct terroirs and winemaking traditions create rosés of unique character and identity. In addition, the vineyards of Provence yield full-bodied reds and delicate whites. Rosé Vinification Rosé is a category of wine that stands alongside red and white. Like red wines, rosés are made from red grapes. In both cases, the wines take their color, flavor, and character from the dark skins. But whereas red wines are made by leaving the skins with the juice during fermentation, rosé producers allow only a brief period of skin contact before draining the pink-tinted juice from the skins (via gravity or direct pressure) and starting the fermentation process. The result is an elegant pink wine with the character of a red and the crispness of a white. Provençal winemakers make rosé by producing single-variety rosés in individual vats. The final cuvée is assembled from these batches. The most common grapes used are Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Tibouren, Carignan, and Cabernet Sauvignon.
