Appearance: Intense garnet red, very opaque and brilliant. It presents slow, glyceric legs that denote its nobility and internal structure.
Nose: Red and black fruits in liqueur (blueberries, prunes), wrapped in nuances of Mediterranean scrubland, toffee, incense, and perfectly integrated fine woods.
Palate: Superb and ample entry. In the Magnum format, a superior roundness with velvety tannins is perceived. Enviable structure, balsamic balance, and eternal persistence.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the advantages of the Magnum (1.5L) format for this wine?
The Magnum format is ideal for professional aging. By having double the volume but the same neck size as a standard bottle, oxidation is much slower, allowing the wine to maintain its freshness and gain complexity over decades.
Is it ready for immediate consumption or does it require cellaring?
Although the 2021 vintage already shows impressive harmony, Hipperia Magnum is designed for posterity. It can be enjoyed today with decanting, but its absolute fullness will be reached after several years of rest under optimal conditions.
