"Fermented in barrels, the 2016 Tavel Libiamo is a blend of Grenache Noir and Grenache Blanc. This full-bodied, richly textured rosé offers notes of vanilla and sweet spices alongside more traditional notes of mandarin and cherry, proving indulgent, velvety, and warm with a long finish.

About the estate:
This estate, renowned for its consistent quality, particularly its Lirac wines in all three colors and its Tavel wines, was founded in 1950 by Armand Maby. In 2005, his grandson Richard took over the reins of the vineyard, 53 hectares located mainly on the rounded pebbles of the Vallongue plateau; the vines are cultivated "naturally" and have been in conversion to organic farming since 2019. Since 2011, the eminent Rhône oenologist Philippe Cambie has been advising the estate.
