Mas de Libian
Côtes du Rhône Villages
Dark Crimson in colour. Notes of burnt vanilla and a strange woody cardboard note. A reasonable uncomplicated savoury palate. An organic biodynamic producer but not delivering enough value for $36.90. Tasted again on 21st Dec 2016. Similar notes as above without the cardboard note. A better than average Cotes du Rhone.

Sep 19th, 2023Like this cote du rhone. Hand selected grapes, spontaneous fermented. Partially Barrique. Nicely embedded acidity, not overpowering - rather well balanced in an elegant backbone. Good value for money for 13€.
