- Rosé wines of Provence
Member and Provence tour organiser Maggie Scholefield brought her deep knowledge of the region to bear on seven rosés, tracing the breadth of Provençal styles from a bargain Aldi Côtes de Provence through AOC Bandol, and along the way making the case that there is considerably more to the region's rosé than the pale Instagram bottles suggest.
