Fruitiness and freshness define this refined, slender red wine, carried by spicy notes. A great classic from the estate, it stands out for its remarkable consistency across every vintage. Notes of ripe fruit are complemented by a lovely freshness that makes this cuvée easy to drink and delightfully indulgent. A rite of passage!

Bettane & Desseauve
Wine rated (2019 guide) 15/20 (2013 vintage) (Very good wine)
Rated estate (2023 guide): 3*Stars (High-quality production that serves as a benchmark in its sector)
About the estate:
The Magnins are among the iconic figures of the Savoyard wine region. These two dedicated winemakers, who have been certified organic since 2012, decided to reduce the estate’s size to three hectares starting with the 2018 harvest. While the selection is small, both the white and red wines are absolutely stunning.

Rated Estate (2023 Guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or high-quality winemakers producing wines of a good standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
This artisanal estate has played a pivotal role in the contemporary history of the Savoyard vineyards. Although the area under cultivation has decreased, meticulous work—both in the vineyard and in the cellar—enables Louis Magnin to achieve the highest levels of expression in both reds and whites. A perfectionist, he demonstrates, across his various vintages, a consistency 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.

Review by Mr. DIDIER P. Published on July 20, 2020
Not bad—it’s reminiscent of Syrah, from which Mondeuse is said to have originated. Very rustic, which pairs perfectly with a charcuterie platter or a simple steak.
