black and red plums

something that one doesn’t see often

There is excellent intensity and power to the imposingly constructed medium weight plus flavors that are blessed with plenty of dry extract that renders the still firm tannic spine almost invisible on the impeccably well-balanced and palate staining finish

Rotem & Mounir Saouma, Chateauneuf Du Pape Magis Blanc other_regions_italy black and red plumsThis wine is a work in progress but everything suggests that it will be a majestic Magis. At this stage it's a kind of engine of blossom, hurling spring fresh fruit tree petals out in every direction. On the palate it's hyper expressive and articulate; blossomy for now, but with plenty of marrow packing its bones, too. Look out for this exceptionally promising wine in a year or two. Barrel sample.
