with Claude Pouizin running the estate through 1996

Coming from a site in the northern portion of the appellation

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

with a backbone of acidity that lifts the wine up and makes it extremely long and persistent

My sense is that while this will age effortlessly for decades

Rotem & Mounir Saouma, Chateauneuf Du Pape Magis Blanc Vintage:2016 with Claude Pouizin running theThis 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.
