This video is an interview hosted by Clara Dalzell from Flatiron Wines in NYC with Olivier Deforges, the 5th generation and current vineyard manager and winemaker at the famed Clos Cibonne estate in Côtes de Provence.
Olivier’s grandfather was one of the founding members of the Côtes de Provence appellation & was responsible for saving the rare Tibouren from extinction and also the grape’s inclusion in the Côtes du Provence discipline.
Olivier explains what makes Clos Cibonne Tibouren Rosé so special and unique from all other Rosé wines, even those found Côtes de Provence.
Thanks to Clara and Flatiron Wines for the excellent and insightful interview! This video is best watched with a glass of Clos Cibonne Tibouren in hand!
