$187
In 1964, eight wine producers banded together to create the Maitres Vignerons de la Presqu’ile de Saint-Tropez (Master Vine Growers of the Saint-Tropez Peninsula). They were joined a few years later by the vine growers of Saint-Roch-les-Vignes a Cuers. Today the association produces 2.5 million bottles of AOC Cotes de Provence and Vins de Pays des Portes de la Mediterranee wines. It is a recognized leader in the Provence region for the quality of its products and service. Each producer vinifies its grapes in its own cellars, while the association handles distribution and marketing.
FLEURS DE PRAIRIE, COTES DE PROVENCE, ROSE 2019 (1.5L)
$118
“Fleurs de Prairie” translates as “wildflowers,” celebrating the beautiful fields of wisteria, lavender, poppy, and sunflowers carpeting Provence. The wine is sourced from select Provencal vineyards that dot the coastal wind-swept hillsides of the region. The Mediterranean combination of sun, wind, mild water stress, and ocean influence provide ideal conditions for grapes to ripen to the perfect balance of flavor and freshness.
