Magie Rouge Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2008
This ‘red magic’ launches forth with a voluptuous bouquet of spiced plums, dark juicy berries, and Bing cherry. On the opulent palate, statuesque proportions of enticing flavors emerge including plums, blackberries, and cassis intermixed with hints of gracefully balanced toasted oak, all accentuated with notes of creamy vanilla and baking spices. This prodigious new discovery boasts a luscious, silky texture plus deftly integrated concentration and a stunning, multidimensional mouth-feel balanced by sinewy tannins to be savored tonight (after decanting) but also bode well for aging at least 3 – 5 years.
