Chateau Carlmagnus Imagine 80th Anniversary is a special anniversary bottling of Fronsac from Bordeaux to commemorate what what would have been John Lennon’s 80th birthday in 2020.
Presented in a 1.5 Litre Magnum.
The Chateau Carlmagnus Imagine 80th Anniversary bottling is a blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc. After harvest, the grapes are sorted and then vinified without crushing. Daily pump-overs and punch-downs were carried out. The wines was then aged for 12 to 14 months in oak barrels (30 to 40% new oak, depending on the vintage).
Also available in bottle. Read more here.
Chateau Carlmagnus has a dark red colour. The nose has aromas of ripe red and black fruiting including dark berries, ripe plums, blueberries and mulberry. There are also aromas of spice and a hint of oak. The palate has a firm, juicy mouthfeel with more dark berry fruit and ripe tannins. Good length, fresh with a drying finish.
Perfect with roast beef or lamb or barbequed lamb chops.
