Biodynamic viticulture is of surprising rarity in the Provence region given the ideal sunny and windy conditions; one outstanding practitioner is the tiny property of Domaine les Fouques, run by Yves Gros, with the wine made by daughter Christelle.
80% Grenache, 20% Cinsault.
This rosé displays a wonderfully full fruited and fleshy appeal, showing more density and textural layering than many other Provence counterparts.  The low intervention winemaking throws elements of funk and texture, adding to the profile of peach, melon and wild strawberries.  An energetic wine, as Yves and I concurred.
“Exotic perfume of rose petal, sour cherry, rose hip tea, savouriness. The palate is vibrant, floods the senses with flesh of strawberry and tang of rose water. The wine feels electric in acidity and lively minerally feel. It’s got a funkiness, a slippery textural element, great extension of flavour too. Very good here.” 
92 points, Mike Bennie, Winefront
