The Delas Frères Seigneur de Maugiron Côte-Rôtie Magnum 1.5L 2010 is a rich and complex wine that has evolved beautifully since last year. Its flavour profile offers a medley of black olives, garrigue, licorice, forest floor, bacon fat, raspberries, and black currants, making it a sophisticated choice for wine enthusiasts.
This particular vintage is presented in a magnum bottle size, which holds 1.5 litres of wine. The larger bottle size provides several benefits, including a slower aging process and a more stable temperature for the wine. The magnum size also has a more impressive appearance and is often associated with special occasions and celebrations.
It's worth noting that the Seigneur de Maugiron is unique among its Syrah-based peers in the Northern Rhone. This medium-bodied Cote Rotie is more akin to a Burgundy-styled wine, making it a distinctive choice for those looking to expand their wine horizons.
