Chateau Magdelaine

The colour is a deep vermilion with a purple reflection. The nose has a touch of vanilla with a brioche-like flavour, stewed fruits, blond tobacco and very ripe merlot, yet is fresh and delicate. On the palate there is a very fine and long tannic framework, a fine example of the type of wine found on the famous limestone plateau of Saint-Emilion. The wine also has touches of oak with current and bilberry fruits. This freshness is accompanied by a very long aromatic persistence backed by good acidity. Best when enjoyed with fine food, the wine expresses a subtle balance between the natural suppleness of Merlot and the distinctive elegance imparted by the limestone soils.
