What are the best pairings for Provence rosé?

Posted by Fiona Beckett (Google+) on June 13 2012 at 06:18

Provence rosé has a particular character. It’s much crisper and drier than most rosés on the market, more like a white wine than a rosé - though within this style there are variations between the lighter, less expensive wines or ‘vins de soif’ and the more structured ones, which the local refer to as ‘vins de gastronomie’.

Here, listed from A-Z, are the dishes and ingredients that I think work best with the 3 appellations: Côtes de Provence, Coteaux d’Aix-en-Provence and Coteaux Varois-en-Provence though some would obviously go equally well with other southern French rosés.
