2011 Rotem & Mounir Saouma "Magis" Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc
96
Wine Spectator
Review Date: 11/2014Stunning, with aromas of warmed yet fresh Jonagold apple and white peach, followed by creamy notes of papaya and mango, mixed with lively mirabelle plum and green apple fruit. Flashes of verbena, quinine and lemon shortbread fill the lengthy finish, revealing a backdrop of wet stone at the very end. A distinctive wine with terrific range. (JM)

Notes
From Rotem and Mounir Saouma, the couple behind the Burgundy micro-négociant Lucien Le Moine, Magis is their white Châteauneuf-du-Pape from the Saouma family estate project in the southern Rhône. The cellar work follows Mounir's patient, Burgundian-influenced approach, with long élevage before bottling rather than a quick release schedule.
