🐟 What would you pair with grilled swordfish?

🍇 Tonight we’re opting for a rosé based almost entirely on the Tibouren grape. When it comes to Tibouren, Clos Cibonne is always an exceptional choice. 👌

Clos Cibonne is an iconic producer in Provence, France 🇫🇷 considered a guardian (and certainly a champion) of the ancient Tibouren grape, a rare variety with roots linking back to Mesopotamia.

🌿 Tibouren has a wild, rustic structure and is often used in the production of pale, perfumed, herbal, and unmistakably coastal rosés.

🍾 This particular bottling is the “Cuvée Spéciale des Vignettes” made with fruit coming from some of the oldest Tibouren parcels on the Clos Cibonne estate (60+ years in age), lending depth and complexity and a runway for serious longevity.

🥂 Clos Cibonne also holds a coveted title as a “Cru Classé” wine based on the 1950s classification within the Côtes de Provence AOC. Its wines are among the most admired in the region.

🪵 Something that sets this rosé apart is that it’s aged under a fleurette — a thin veil of yeast (similar to the flor in Sherry) — in large, neutral oak foudres, creating a savory, textural, almost oxidative nuance that’s distinctively delicious.

🍽️ It’s a beautiful pairing with our grilled swordfish over thinly sliced heirloom tomatoes , cucumbers 🥒 , arugula and feta topped with a caper-olive relish.

🍓 The delicate red fruit, savory, dried herb (garrigue) and saline elements of the wine complement the flavors of the meal in wonderful harmony.

Cheers to the practice of food & wine pairing — may it be a lifelong endeavor!! — 2 months ago
