Italy

Bolgheri

The early vintages of Magari were dominated by Merlot before the variety was eliminated from the blend. This 2004 is 50% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Franc and 10% Petit Verdot. Perfumed violet scents merge with mulchy earth and charcuterie notes. In the mouth it's not at all opulent - instead, it's a delicate, elegant wine with a delightful chocolatey softness and slightly sandy, fully integrated tannins. Well balanced with vibrant acidity and juicy fruits, it's still holding together nicely.
