Winemaker Notes

Pibarnon's Rosé heralds the arrival of summer and combines the flavorful complexity of Mourvedre with the spicy aromas of Cinsault. This thirst-quenching, lightly textured wine reminds us of the climate and lifestyle of Provence, with languorous summer afternoons and leisurely meals.

Blend: 60% Mourvedre, 40% Cinsault

Professional Ratings

  • 90
    A solid rosé, with lightly muddled watermelon, white cherry and white raspberry fruit, carried by tea and watermelon seed notes. A flash of savory adds life to the broad finish. Shows more weight than zip, but delivers ample range and definition. Drink now.

Chateau de Pibarnon, France
Chateau de Pibarnon Winemaker- Eric de Saint Victor Winery Image

The source of the refinement and elegance of Chateau de Pibarnon's wines lies in the estate's captivating vineyards, which overlook the Mediterranean Sea in the appellation of Bandol, in Provence. 

A thick-skinned black grape, Mourvèdre has found its favourite soils in the sunny Bandol appellation. Some 3,000 hours of sunshine a year perfectly suit this slow-ripening grape. Rarely found in other cooler French vineyards, Mourvèdre brings harmony, elegance and an amazing ageing capacity to the red and rosé wines of sunny Bandol.

The Bandol region was essentially undiscovered when Catherine and Henri de Saint Victor purchased Pibarnon in the late 1970s. Recognizing the region’s potential, this visionary couple worked tirelessly for some 30 years, landscaping and crafting ever better wines. 

By the 1990s, Pibarnon was making the region’s top red and rosé wines, a status today maintained under their son, Eric de Saint Victor, today the estate's winemaker.

Whether it’s playful and fun or savory and serious, most rosé today is not your grandmother’s White Zinfandel, though that category remains strong. Pink wine has recently become quite trendy, and this time around it’s commonly quite dry. Since the pigment in red wines comes from keeping fermenting juice in contact with the grape skins for an extended period, it follows that a pink wine can be made using just a brief period of skin contact—usually just a couple of days. The resulting color depends on grape variety and winemaking style, ranging from pale salmon to deep magenta.

Provence’s leader in concentrated and age-worthy red wines, Bandol is home to the dense, deep and earthy Mourvèdre grape. Like Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Bandol produces characterful reds that, while approachable in their youth, are typically designed for the cellar.

Given its coastal, Provencal situation, Bandol also naturally produces an assortment of charming, aromatic rosés made of Mourvèdre, Grenache and Cinsault.
