Southern France FAQs

What Is Southern French Wine?


These are wines produced in Southern France, which covers hundreds of thousands of vineyard acres across the regions of the Languedoc, Roussillon, Provence and the Southern Rhône Valley.

Southern France has a broad range of topography, from the rocky mountains of the Pyrenees to the breezy coastal areas along the Mediterranean coast. The climate in the South of France is characterized by dry summers and mild winters, which contributes to the production of ripe grapes with wonderfully diverse flavors.

What Is the Style and Character of Wines From the South of France?

Red wines from the South of France are known to be full-bodied and rich in texture, whereas rosé and white wines from Southern France are usually dry and refreshing, with subtle hints of minerality. All wines grown in the South of France are highly celebrated for their ability to complement and enhance some of the region’s most exquisite cuisines.

What Is the History of Winemaking in Southern France?

Wine has been grown in the South of France for thousands of years, dating back to the ancient Greeks, who planted their vineyards in the 6th century B.C. The Romans later expanded these plantings. By the Middle Ages, religious monasteries established a flourishing wine trade, as the monks learned the science of viticulture and cultivated grape-growing methods that are still practiced today. By the early 20th century, the South of France had gained a reputation for creating outstanding wines that burst with flavor.

Famous Wines From the South of France


Red Wines

Grenache is a red grape variety widely planted in the Southern Rhône and creates wines with high alcohol content, low tannins and juicy flavors. Syrah is also a popular grape and a key ingredient in many silky red wines. Other popular grapes are Mourvèdre and Carignan, celebrated for creating delicious wines, firm in tannins and with aromas of dark berries and wild herbs. A combination of Grenache, Syrah, Carignan and Mourvèdre is used to create Côtes-du-Rhône—a famous red wine produced in Southern France, known for its robust structure and full-bodied character, alongside flavors of dark fruit, spice and leather.

Rosé Wines

Provence is known for producing some of the world’s best rosé wines, acclaimed for their crisp and refreshing taste. Provençal Rosé wines are celebrated for their beautiful pale hues and luscious flavors bursting with strawberry, raspberry and cherry notes. Grenache and Syrah grapes are the two most common grapes used in Southern French rosé wine. Cinsault, a grape typically planted in the Languedoc and Provence regions, is also used to create rosé wines with crisp, pure fruit flavors.
