Magnum Manon de l'Arnesque 2011

🍾 MAGNUM MANON DE L'ARNESQUE 2011 — A GREAT CHÂTEAUNEUF AT FULL MATURITY

The 2011 vintage in Châteauneuf-du-Pape was generous, sun-filled and concentrated, and is now showing beautifully. Manon de l'Arnesque in a 1.5 L magnum offers this remarkable wine in a format ideally suited to slow ageing, revealing layers of preserved fruit, spice, leather and woodland — with exceptional depth on the palate.

In the glass: an evolved garnet colour with brick-red highlights, and a complex tertiary nose of preserved fruit, leather, tobacco, dried garrigue and oriental spices. The tannins are melted and silky, the palate broad and velvety, and the finish seemingly endless. A mature wine for a memorable occasion.
