Morey Saint Denis 2012 - Stéphane Magnien
Great Burgundy wines
The Morey-Saint-Denis from Domaine Stéphane Magnien—which includes the "Grains Fins" and "Vieilles Vignes" cuvées, as well as Premier Cru expressions such as "Aux Petites Noix" and "Les Faconnières"—authentically embodies the upright, structured character of its home village. Crafted from Pinot Noir grapes grown on clay-limestone soils, the wine reveals intense aromas of dark fruit (black cherry, blueberry), cherry pit, and spices, complemented by subtle floral notes. On the palate, a winemaking approach focused on gentle extraction, combined with measured aging in oak barrels, allows for a dense, vibrant, and fleshy texture. This is supported by a firm yet refined tannic structure and a lovely mineral freshness. It is a wine of real character—flavorful and built for aging—that strikes a perfect balance between the natural power of the Morey-Saint-Denis terroir and the pure, approachable style that is the hallmark of Stéphane Magnien.
