Magdelaine 2004

Tasting Notes

Tasting more like a Grenache-based wine than one dominated by Merlot, the 2004 offers up sweet, pure notes of kirsch along with crisp acidity in a medium-bodied, somewhat superficial format. Magdelaine is generally a lighter-styled claret, and the dark ruby-hued 2004 should be drunk during its first decade of life.

Warm, complex and subtle. Spicy and a little bloody but restrained. Well balanced but perhaps just a hint of bitterness at the end.
