These vineyards create exceptional sparkling wines using the traditional method, offering a symphony of delicate bubbles, elegant flavors, and vibrant acidity.
In the Rhône Valley, iconic vineyards like Chapoutier, E. Guigal, and Château de Beaucastel produce remarkable red wines in the northern appellations of Hermitage, Côte-Rôtie, and Cornas, showcasing the elegance and power of Syrah. Further south, Châteauneuf-du-Pape is celebrated for its rich and full-bodied red blends, with Château Rayas and Clos des Papes leading the way.

Fresh but youthfully tight, showing limited early sweetness but very good definition and energy to the flavors of blackberry, blueberry, spices and violet. Finishes with subtle saline complexity and a note of licorice pastille, but the wine's dusty tannins are a touch dry today and will need patience. |

Vinous (88)The 2018 Morey-Saint-Denis Faconnières 1er Cru is backward on the nose with blackcurrant and raspberry fruit, not complex and maybe showing some overripeness compared to its peers (indeed, it bears semblance to the Chambolles in 2018). There is some brettanomyces here. The palate is medium-bodied with chewy tannins, quite muscular in style but there is a nagging greenness that juts out on the aftertaste. Perhaps some fruit that did not attain phenolic ripeness? Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 red tasting. |

The Stephane Magnien Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru Cuvee Aux Petites Noix 2019 encapsulates the essence of French craftsmanship. Sourced exclusively from the esteemed burgundian village, Morey-Saint-Denis, this wine exhibits a true expression of its unique terroir. The Stephane Magnien family, with four generations of expertly cultivated winemaking knowledge, are the hands and heart behind this stellar 1er Cru. Produced in limited quantities from meticulously hand-harvested and sorted Pinot Noir grapes, this wine is then traditionally vinified and aged in oak barrels, bestowing it a rich, complex character. Its elegant, medium-bodied profile unfurls to reveal layers of bright red fruit, toasted hazelnut nuances and subtle oak inflections - a testament to the quality of this unique Cuvee Aux Petites Noix. With its remarkable balance between robust flavour and delicate complexity, the Stephane Magnien Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru Cuvee Aux Petites Noix 2019 is indeed a divine fusion of tradition, terroir, and skilled winemaking. |

Vinous (90)The 2016 Morey-Saint-Denis Les Faconnières 1er Cru has a comparatively light bouquet with earthy red and black fruit, hints of tobacco coming through with aeration. The palate is quite refined, nicely balanced, and fleshy for a Morey-Saint-Denis. A touch of bitter red fruit on the finish. It is just missing some substance and the verve of the best wines from the appellation. Tasted blind at the 2016 Burgfest tasting. |

Vinous (88)The 2018 Morey-Saint-Denis Faconnières 1er Cru is backward on the nose with blackcurrant and raspberry fruit, not complex and maybe showing some overripeness compared to its peers (indeed, it bears semblance to the Chambolles in 2018). There is some brettanomyces here. The palate is medium-bodied with chewy tannins, quite muscular in style but there is a nagging greenness that juts out on the aftertaste. Perhaps some fruit that did not attain phenolic ripeness? Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 red tasting. |

Burghound (91-93)Even earthier dark berry aromas are laced with spice, floral and smoke nuances. The delicious and solidly concentrated middle weight plus flavors coat the palate with dry extract that also buffers the firm tannic spine supporting the impressively long finale. This is lovely with excellent power though a wine that is going to require at least some patience. One to consider. (91-93)/2032+ |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92-94)A glowing fresh purple. The bouquet too emphasises a fresh quality of lifted raspberry fruit. Then a riper more luxurious style in the mouth. Very lovely, but there is only a barrel and a half. Profound and with peps says Stéphane. Certainly persistent. Tasted: December 2021 |
