13.5%

 

From The Winemaker: "The good maturity of our grapes gives Magnan-Figeac intense aromas of red fruits. This comes from sandy-clay soils, located in one piece on an old terrace, facing due south. This very draining soil, accompanied by its microclimate, one of the warmest and sunniest in the Bordeaux region, is ideal for bringing our grapes to perfect maturity with a slight water stress which increases their concentration."

 

TASTING NOTES: Medium-dense ruby ​​to purple color. Expressive nose of black fruits with spices, toast and a hint of alcohol. Round mouth on fruits with a lot of sweetness. Elegant finish.

 

FOOD PAIRINGS: Magnan-Figeac goes very well with today's cuisine such as a gourmet hamburger, a homemade quiche, a vegetable gratin or a simple plate of cold meats and cheeses.
