Notes on the Wine
The wine has a salmon-orange color. The nose is enchanting, warm and matures into smooth spicy aromas. Winy, mellow, surprisingly mineral on the palate. This is a bit of an anomaly as a 2015 vintage but is phenomenally complex. I drink it at room temperature so I don't miss any of the nuance.
Notes on the Producer
The property of Clos Cibonne dates back to 1797 when the Roux Family purchased it from Jean Baptiste de Cibon, captain of the royal marines of Louis XVI. In 1930, André Roux modernized the winery in order to pursue his goal of producing top quality wines at the estate. This revival ignited an era of fame for the rosés of Clos Cibonne.
