Magdalia

 

Chateau d’Exindre la Magdelaine
Cuvée Magdalia 2007

AOC Coteaux du Languedoc

This purple and ruby coloured wine has plum and high toned berry and dark fruit aromas with touches of spice at the finish. The palate is similar to the nose, with the berry and darker fruit flavours complemented by softening fine grained tannins. The wine is nicely balanced an has good persistence of flavour, it is also very drinkable.
