Awarded 1 star by the RVF Guide, Clos Cibonne remains an undeniable and unmatched gem of Provence. This historic estate, nestled by the sea and certified organic, thrives on a unique terroir where the Tibouren grape truly shines. An ancient, local variety found nowhere else, Tibouren produces highly distinctive wines that showcase the region’s great potential.
The rosés, in particular, stand out from the rest with their texture, depth, and subtlety, striking a perfect balance between Provençal tradition and modernity. The reds are equally impressive, offering the same level of refinement and distinctive style.
