Clos Cibonne Tibouren Rose Cuvee Tradition Cotes de Provence Cru Classe 2023

Clos Cibonnes iconic Cuve Tradition stands uniquely apart from other ross as a classic, one-of-a-kind Ctes de Provence ros featuring the tibouren grape in the lead role. Cuve Tradition is legendary amongst experienced French wine collectors for its texture, substance, and ability to age gracefully for a decade or more. It is a limited wine made exclusively with estate-grown, organic tibouren grapes, and a bit of grenache to meet Ctes de Provence blending guidelines.

The vineyard, one of 18 Crus Classs of Ctes de Provence, consists of traditional goblet trained vines located close to the Mediterranean Sea in the foothills of the Maures mountains, overlooking Toulons harbor. The microclimate of Clos Cibonne is especially important to the uniqueness of the wines, as the proximity of the ocean brings much needed cool air to the vineyards in the summer months. Their location at the foot of the Maures mountains ensures good east-west ventilation, which is ideal for the health and balance of the vineyard.
