Clos Saouma Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc MAGIS 2021
$305.00
Magis, meaning “more, much more,” is a wine that truly lives up to its name. This exceptional blend consists of 75% old vine Grenache Blanc, complemented by Clairette, Bourboulenc, and Roussanne. Hand-picked and whole bunch pressed manually, the grapes undergo co-fermentation in barrels, with primary fermentation often extending until the following spring and followed by malolactic fermentation. Aged on full lees for a minimum of two years with no racking or added sulfur, Magis develops a deep, complex flavor profile.
Sourced from two exceptional vineyard sites, Pied-Redon and Le Pointu, Magis reflects the unique terroir of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Pied-Redon, covering 1.7 hectares, is known for its sandy soil and active limestone, creating ideal conditions for white wines. Le Pointu, the highest point in the appellation, contributes to the wine’s distinctive character with its clay and sandy topsoil.
The smokiness of Magis is derived from the soil, not the barrel, highlighting the unique influence of the vineyard’s terroir. Experience the exceptional quality and rich heritage of Magis, a wine that offers “more, much more.”
