Clos Cibonne 'Tradition' Tibouren Côtes de Provence Cru Classé Rosé 2021

A 90% Tibouren (relatively rare Provencal varietal, primarily used in Rosés), 10% Grenache blend from a Cru Classé producer. Vinified in the estate’s 100-year-old foudres.

''This intensely savory rosé is texturally very pure and integrated, with a beguiling mix of  grapefruit, rose petal and tangerine notes. Notes of chamomile tea and a green herbal thread add complexity through the succulent, penetrating finish.'' 91 Points, Wine Specator Magazine

Clos Cibonne’s iconic Rosé stands uniquely apart from other Rosés as a classic, one-of-a-kind Côtes de Provence rosé featuring the tibouren grape in the lead role. This is legendary amongst experienced French wine collectors for its texture, substance, and ability to age gracefully for a decade or more. The wine has a salmon-orange color. The nose is enchanting and matures into smooth spicy aromas. Mellow and surprisingly mineral on the palate.
