“This Mondeuse is full of finesse, with fresh, minty notes and hints of fresh blackcurrant and raspberry. The palate is lively, with a lively acidity and fresh fruit, followed by subtle, well-integrated tannins. ” (Les Meilleurs Vins de France 2011 - Gault Millau)

Rated estate (2023 guide): 3 stars (High-quality production, setting the standard in its sector)

About the estate:

The Magnins are among the most iconic figures in the Savoyard 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 their selection is small, both their white and red wines are truly exquisite.

Rated estate (2023 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing wines of a high 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 vineyard area has shrunk, Louis Magnin’s meticulous work—both in the vineyard and in the cellar—enables him 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 vintages aged in tanks over those aged in barrels.

Review by Mr. HUGO M. Posted on 11/15/2015

A pleasant wine. Good length, slightly smooth but with an elegant fruitiness. The quality is there. But not the value for money. (Or price-to-pleasure ratio)....
