Highlights: Clos Cibonne Tibouren Rosé Cuvée Speciale des Vignettes 2024
Website: www.clos-cibonne.com
This is a very famous rosé property in Provence, making slightly atypical rosés that are highly regarded. And this special cuvée, aged under a think layer of flor, is made from the Tibouren variety, which is really interesting.
Clos Cibonne Tibouren Rosé Cuvée Speciale des Vignettes 2024 Cru Classé Provence, France
14% alcohol. Organic farming, 60 year old vines planted in schist soils. Raised in ancient 5000 litre foudres with a thin layer of flor. Full orange/pink in colour. Restrained aromatics of honey, nuts and spice with a hint of wax and some subtle glue notes (they are better than they sound!). The palate is concentrated and dense with some structure to it, and nice spicy detail, held in focus with good acidity. Nicely complex and intense, with gastronomic possibilities. Great intensity and focus to this wine which is really serious. 95/100
