Note di degustazione
The 2017 Carlmagnus is a soft, fruity Fronsac to drink over the near and medium term, before the fruit totally fades. Dried cherry, mint, tobacco are overpowered by sweet oak and a slight vegetal streak

Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2017 Carlmagnus gives up savory notes of charcuterie and tapenade with a core of baked blackberries and plum preserves plus a waft of bouquet garni. The medium-bodied palate is sporting a good amount of oak with a firm, grainy texture and good length.
The 2017 Carlmagnus has a very intense, rather glossy bouquet with precocious dark cherry and crème de cassis aromas that rather swamp the idea of terroir expression. The palate is medium-bodied and supple tannins. A fine bead of acidity, leads to a dense and sadly, rather monotone finish.
The 2017 Carlmagnus has a bright, lively bouquet with blackberry, raspberry and red cherry aromas, a floral note with time. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin. Sure, it is a little oaky towards the mocha infused finish but it feels long and harmonious with a caressing finish. Worth investigating!
