“A Mondeuse made from century-old vines —subtly spicy, full-bodied and powerful, with great length and vitality. With its smoky notes, it brings to mind the fine Syrahs of the Northern Rhône!” (Bettane & Desseauve Wine Guide 2018) Powerful and round, with a hint of forest floor, this Mondeuse from Louis Magnin is a true connoisseur’s wine.

About the estate:
The Magnins are among the most iconic figures in the Savoy wine region. These two dedicated winemakers, who have been certified organic since 2012, decided to downsize the estate to three hectares starting with the 2018 harvest. While the selection is small, both the white and red wines are absolutely stunning.

About the estate:
This artisanal estate has played a pivotal role in the contemporary history of the Savoyard vineyards. Although the vineyard area has shrunk, meticulous work—both in the vineyard and in the cellar—enables Louis Magnin to achieve exceptional expression in both reds and whites. A perfectionist, he demonstrates a consistency across his various vintages that few producers in this region can match. Less opulent than in the past, the whites emphasize mineral intensity. Among the Mondeuses—flamboyant yet meant for aging—we continue to prefer (often, though not this year!) the cuvées aged in tanks over those aged in barrels.
