Côtes du Provence, Tibouren Tradition 2017, Clos Cibonne, France

Cotes de Provence

Viticulture: Tibouren is a very old variety from Provence that was single-handedly saved by Clos Cibonne. Organically grown 800 m from the Mediterranean.

Vinification: Native fermentation in big old oak barrels.

Tasting: WOW. Beautiful wild strawberry nose, with seaside minerality, creaminess, sweet sage, and a hint of tropical guava and passionfruit. Very delicate, but powerful as well. Sophisticated.

Nothing to say about the palate. This is pretty much perfect rosé. Killer.

Drink with everything.
