Tasting Notes
Magnum Deep carmine garnet, ruby reflections, broad watery rim, quite dark color. Restrained nose, delicate aromas of dark berries and nougat, fine spicy notes. Good complexity on the palate, some dark chocolate, powerful tannins, fresh structure, delicately astringent on the finish, dries out, cedar wood tone on the finish. A single bottle tasted in 2008 was comparatively completely contaminated with PCP. To be enjoyed with caution +10
