Clos Cibonne have a range of early drinking wines they call 'Tentations'. These are not aged in wood as the more serious wines are; instead they are built for refreshment and warm weather. This rosé is mostly Grenache, and shows off the raspberry, cherry and rose petal notes of that variety nicely. Smooth, soft and supple.

The property of Clos Cibonne dates back to 1797, but it was not until 1930, when André Roux invested time & effort into the vineyards, that the estate began to produce great wines. In the 1980s, hard times fell upon the estate & it drifted without clear direction until Bridget, André Roux’s granddaughter, and her husband, Claude Deforge, took over in the late 1990s. By renovating the cellars yet preserving the tradition of ageing in old foudres (massive ancient wooden barrels), the family began to re-establish the great reputation of the domaine. Thanks to their efforts, Clos Cibonne now shines with its former glory. They are recognised as one of the 18 'Cru Classés' in the Côtes de Provence region - a designation awarded to the best, most revered wine estates, who produce the greatest wines. Of those 18 estates, they are the only ones who work with the grape variety Tibouren, which is only found in Provence and across the Italian border in Italy. It adds a certain 'je ne sais quoi' to the wines, and deepens the mystery and prestige around the stunning estate.
