In a half-bottle (375ml), it evolves slightly faster than a standard bottle, showing rich aromas of black raspberry, cassis, garrigue, licorice, and bay leaf, complemented by fine, silky tannins and a savory mineral finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe nose shows wild herbs, thyme, juniper, black olive, and leather, layered over dark red and black cherry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with deep notes of plum, black raspberry, and a hint of dark chocolate, held together by ripe, smooth tannins and a fresh, mineral-driven backbone typical of Pibarnon's high-altitude Triassic limestone and blue marl soils.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMore About The Winery\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in 1977 by the Comte Henri de Saint-Victor, Château de Pibarnon was one of the estates that helped restore Bandol's reputation as one of Provence's most serious terroirs. The vineyard is planted at unusually high altitude for the appellation, on limestone screes that force the old Mourvèdre vines to struggle for every drop of water — a key factor in the wines' concentration and longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe estate remains family-run today, continuing a philosophy centred on low yields and patient, traditional winemaking, hand-harvesting each of its terraced parcels and ageing the wines slowly to allow Mourvèdre's structure to soften into something more refined and complex.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chateau de Pibarnon","offers":[{"title":"12 x 375 ml","offer_id":46091473027142,"sku":"VSSK-03376-Case - 12 x 375 ml","price":620.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1 x 375 ml","offer_id":46091472961606,"sku":"VSSK-03376","price":54.8,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0269\/5177\/8374\/files\/pibh.png?v=1785921330","url":"https:\/\/thevintageclub.sg\/products\/chateau-de-pibarnon-bandol-red-2013","provider":"The Vintage Wine Club Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
