MAGNUM CLOS DES JACOBINS 2016 ST EMILION GRAND CRU CLASSE 1.5l

Description :

• Appellation : Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé
• Producer : Clos des Jacobins
• Vintage : 2016
• Format : Magnum (1.5 L)

Tasting:

• Dress : Deep garnet color with brilliant highlights.
• Nose : Complex aromas of black fruits (blackcurrant, blackberry), cherries, accompanied by notes of licorice, tobacco and light spicy and woody touches.
• Palate : Full and opulent with a fine, well-integrated tannic structure. Flavors of ripe fruit, spice, and a subtle minerality are evident. The finish is long, elegant, and persistent.

Food and Wine Pairing:

• Red meats : Ideal with a beef fillet, a roast leg of lamb or a duck breast.
• Stews : Pairs perfectly with saucy dishes such as beef stew, coq au vin or cassoulet.
• Cheeses : Pairs well with mature cheeses such as Comté, Saint-Nectaire or Brie de Meaux.

Guarding Potential:

• The 2016 vintage is an exceptional year for Bordeaux, and this wine can be enjoyed now for its richness and complexity. In magnum format, it has even greater aging potential, improving for 15 to 20 years.

Service Tips:

• Temperature : Serve between 16 and 18°C.
• Decanting : Decanting for one to two hours is recommended to allow the aromas to fully express themselves.
