Morey-Saint-Denis Premier Cru Cuvee Petites Noix Domaine Stephane Magnien 2019

Description

Stephane Magnien took over his family’s very small, 4.5 hectare domaine in 2009, and is making some truly beautiful wines – a rising star on the Cote de Nuits. Most parcels are in Morey-Saint-Denis with a couple of parcels in Chambolle-Musigny and also some regional appellations.

No herbicides have ever been permitted in their vineyards, thus helping to ensure that the soils here are well aerated and organically alive.

This is a blend of two tiny vineyards, Gruenchers and Clos Baulet, always one of the more robust and intense wines from Stephane, the 2019 is exceptional with terrific length and a rich core.
