Tibouren is a rare and distinctive grape variety primarily associated with the Provence region in southern France, particularly the areas around Saint-Tropez and the Côtes de Provence appellation. Highly valued for its unique aromatic profile, Tibouren is renowned for its subtle yet complex bouquet marked by notes of dried herbs, earthy undertones, leather, garrigue, and wild strawberries. On the palate, the wines are light to medium-bodied, fresh, and elegant, characterized by vivid acidity and a delicate minerality, delivering flavors of red berries, Mediterranean herbs, and sometimes spicy or rustic nuances.
Tibouren is typically used in the production of elegant, pale rosé wines, often as part of a blend to enhance aromatic complexity. Its singular character also lends itself to the occasional varietal bottling, prized by connoisseurs seeking originality. The wines epitomize the fresh, crisp, and aromatic style of Provençal rosé, making them an excellent match for Mediterranean cuisine. Tibouren-based wines pair beautifully with grilled seafood, Niçoise salad, herbed poultry, Provençal vegetables, and lighter fare—highlighting and complementing the flavors of sun-drenched southern French dishes.
