The most original and exciting Rosé de Provence is born in a 17th century estate. XVII in the schist hills of Maure, just 800 meters from the Mediterranean, in the hands of the Roux family for almost 230 years. The rare and ancestral Tibouren variety, whose planting accounts for less than 2% of Provençal vines, and aging in centuries-old wooden “foudres”, under a fragrant veil of yeast, the “fleurette”, contribute to a unique style, totally o the opposite of the easy, uncomplex fruit of most rosés in the world. Independence, character, history and the “drama factor” abound at Clos Cibonne!
Wine:
A blend of 85% Tibouren, 10% Grenache and 5% Syrah from vines overlooking the sea, 800 meters away, on a hill part of the Maures mountain range. The sea breeze prolongs the ripening of the grapes, retaining their freshness, as well as good exposure to the region's frequent winds. Organic cultivation and soil work in the 40-year-old vineyards. Calcareous and schist soils.
Fermentation in 300 liters wood, where it ages for 10 months without veil, unlike the tradition and vignette line, two rosés made sous vouile, as in the Jura.
