Pulp and freshness punctuate this fine, slender red wine, carried by spices. A great classic from the estate, notable for its consistency across each vintage. Notes of ripe fruit are complemented by a lovely freshness that makes this cuvée easy to drink and delicious. An initiation rite!

Bettane & Desseauve
Wine rating (2019 guide) 15/20 (2013 vintage) (Very good wine)
Rated estate (2023 guide) 3 stars (High-quality production, serving as a benchmark in its sector)
About the estate:
The Magnin couple are among the iconic figures of the Savoyard wine region. These two passionate winegrowers, who have been working organically since 2012, decided to reduce the estate to three hectares starting with the 2018 harvest. The range is certainly small, but both the white and red wines are truly beautiful.

Rated estate (2023 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing good-quality wines; you won't be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
This artisanal estate has played a key role in the contemporary history of Savoyard winegrowing. Although the area under cultivation has decreased, meticulous work in both the vineyard and the cellar has enabled Louis Magnin to achieve excellence in both red and white wines. A perfectionist, he demonstrates a consistency across his different vintages that few producers in this region can match. Less opulent than in the past, the whites favor mineral intensity. Among the flamboyant Mondeuses, which are intended for aging, we continue to prefer (often, but not this year!) the vintages aged in vats to those aged in barrels.

Review and opinion by Mr. DIDIER P. Published on 07/20/2020
Not bad, reminiscent of Syrah, from which Mondeuse is said to originate. Very rustic, which goes perfectly with a charcuterie starter or a simple steak.
