I don't think many people no the difference,they go for overall taste.
Just my thoughts

I don't think most people including me wouldn't recognize the difference other than taste and color , were they came from.

Well, I think it boils down to what TonyP wrote in the early drinking kits thread:

There are several reasons why the wine you selected will be low in tannins. One reason is that Pinot Noir is lower in tannins than other reds on your list. Adding tannin may make your wine's mouthfeel preferable to you but may also make it feel less like Pinot Noir.

If something is labelled as a "Provence style Rose" at least I expect to get just that, not something else. Admittedly, a Provence rose can have a wide variety of flavors and colors. but it's typically very pale.
