    Clos Cibonne Tradition Cru Classé (Rosé) 2024 - ExceptionalTasted by Elizabeth Gabay MW & Ben Bernheim

    Dark golden salmon pink. Discreet dried apricot aromas. On the palate, the dried apricot fruit is rich and intense, giving an impression of sweetness and soft nutty flavours with a hint of almost jammy richness. This is beautifully held together by the fine sourness of marmalade and fresh citrus confit. I have never had medlars and cream, but somehow that springs to mind. Evocative of mellow sunshine and ripe autumn fruit; rich and intense, but amazingly fresh and mouthwatering with long, vibrant acidity and perhaps a touch of autumn raspberries peeking through.
