Classical Wine of Provence - Rosé

Provence is too sunny and hot to produce a really good red wine, but their rosés are beyond compare.  It is the classical wine of Provence.  There are many varieties including the famous rosé wines grown in the Camargue on sand.  The entire Camargue region is the ancient river delta of the Rhone River, and it has the silt and sand of ages collected there.  The Sablon rosé wine is beyond compare.  However, most rosé in any part of Provence is excellent, and it is the beverage of choice.
