2018 | Clos Cibonne | Cotes de Provence Tibouren Cuvee Prestige Caroline Rose

Strong color with the first shades of maturity in the colour. Very reductive in fragrance, almond. Then also candied orange peel. Very supple and round in the mouth, but also homogeneous with a delicate phenol pressure, oily base, fine nerve, a finely chiseled and yet very expressive wine.

Reviews:

• Falstaff: Strong color with the first shades of maturity in the colour. Very reductive in fragrance, almond. Then also candied orange peel. Very supple and round in the mouth, but also homogeneous with a delicate phenol pressure, oily base, fine nerve, a finely chiseled and yet very expressive wine. Will benefit from a carafe. And has a wide range of culinary uses: rabbit and poultry, shrimp salad. Pasta with crayfish.

Producer Information

ensconced by the natural beauty of their landscape, producing wines which always transcend the rosé category, but they are also an anomaly within France in general. For centuries, Clos Cibonne has bravely forged their own distinct path. They have held true to a tradition of making age-worthy fine wines which happen to be rosé, in the midst of an appellation which rewards fitting in and churning out the same-but-different rosé wines which are ubiquitous throughout Côtes de Provence. It is this independence and originality that has made Clos Cibonne one of the most sought after cult wineries in France, with demand greatly outpacing their artisan-scale production. The modern era at Clos Cibonne property began in 1793 when the Roux family purchased it from Jean-Baptiste de Cibon, a captain in the royal marines of Louis XVI. Jean-Baptiste de Cibon served under the command of Lafayette in the American Revolutionary War against the British, playing an instrumental role in that history. Jean-Baptiste moved his family to Gibraltar at the outset of the French Revolutionary War, transferring ownership to the families who had traditionally farmed the estate; the Roux family was one of those farmers. Some bottles still survive at the estate from Marius Roux, who made wines under the Château Cibon label in the late 1800’s at the property.
