Cibonne
Clos Cibonne Cuvée Spéciale des Vignettes Tibouren Rosé
This is a wine worthy of a case to see how it ages year by year. Grown up today, you have to think this gets interesting in swervy ways a decade from now.
There's a spectacular satisfaction in immediate restraint from fruit. This is so savory. Herbs for hours. Rosemary and thyme and cinnamon dusted dried orange and butterscotch.
The burnt orange color is stunning, but the most spectacular component is the viscous texture. Feels like it should and could be syrupy, it’s thick instead like a bone dry salty saline solution, wonderfully oxidized.
Do not drink this cold - this begs for cellar temp
