MAKE MINE A MAGNUM
Magnums instantly convey generosity. There's something enormously giving in that definitely-needs-two-hands pour. A greater sense of ceremony and celebration too. But magnums find favour among winemakers for more practical reasons that ultimately benefit the way the wines taste. Experts say that there’s no better format for bottle ageing.
TASTING NOTE & FOOD PAIRING
Bright golden in colour with a fine, delicate mousse and aromas of ripe orchard fruits, peach and mandarin. The palate is dominated by orchard and citrus fruits, with orange peel, lemon curd and ripe pear, alongside stone fruits and hints of ginger. The wine shows rich, bold fruit notes followed with notes of toasted brioche, apple tarte tatin and sweet spice, leading to a long, complex finish. It is a wonderful match with pan-fried turbot with lemon hollandaise and toasted cobnuts, or stuffed courgette flowers with ricotta and honey.
