The Delas Frères Le Clos Crozes-Hermitage Magnum 1.5L 2009 is a superb wine that has been aged in small French oak barrels. Its rich and complex flavour profile includes notes of creme de cassis, black raspberries, licorice, crushed rocks, and spring flowers. The wine boasts a striking minerality and a dense ruby/purple colour that is enhanced by the magnum bottle size of 1.5 litres.
The magnum bottle size is known to improve the wine's aging potential by reducing the ratio of oxygen to wine, thereby slowing down the aging process. It also enhances the wine's appearance, making it an ideal gift for special occasions or a centrepiece for a gathering.
This full-bodied and dense wine has some tannins still to shed, and it will benefit from 2-3 years of cellaring. However, it has the potential to last for up to two decades, making it an excellent investment for any wine collector. Overall, the Delas Frères Le Clos Crozes-Hermitage Magnum 1.5L 2009 is a must-try for anyone who appreciates a rich, complex, and well-aged wine.
