pure and ever-so-mildly tangy finale where a hint of wood appears

The refined and delicious flavors are almost delicate though there is good mid-palate density though once again

Blends richness and finesse with a deft hand and finishes incredibly long and precise

indeed to the point where they possess a silky mouth feel and culminate in a superbly long and punchy finish that is the epitome of finesse

My sense is that while this will age effortlessly for decades

Rotem & Mounir Saouma, Chateauneuf Du Pape Magis Blanc Vintage:2016 pure and ever-so-mildly tangy finaleThis 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.
