Magdelaine
-
Wine Advocate (80)
Here is an example of a wine that had a lovely, perfumed, soft, berry bouquet, and moderately intense flavors, yet because of extensive oak aging, now tastes hard, astringent, tannic, and deficient in fruit. The color is very sound, the bouquet suggests vanillin, woodsy aromas, but on the palate, the wine is unyielding and ungenerous. Perhaps time will unleash the fruit. Anticipated maturity: Now-2000. Last tasted, 3/87.Inc. VAT£1,668.07 -

As often with Magdelaine in recent vintages, this is on the austere side. Its firm tannins and structure dominate the fruit. That said, it does have bright fruit underneath all this tightness, and is finely balanced, the berry fruits lifted with some intense acidity. It needs another few months to settle in bottle.Inc.
