The 2023 Domaine Stéphane Magnien Coteaux Bourguignons "Pur Pinot Noir" is a charming and authentic Burgundy crafted by one of Morey-Saint-Denis’ most respected family estates. Produced from 100% Pinot Noir sourced from small parcels near the village, the wine is aged in a combination of large oak vessels and stainless steel before being bottled unfined and unfiltered. It is designed to showcase the purity, freshness and drinkability of Pinot Noir while reflecting Stéphane Magnien’s elegant, terroir-focused style.
The nose reveals wild raspberry, red cherry and plum alongside subtle floral notes and gentle spice. The palate is fresh and vibrant, combining bright red berry fruit with silky tannins and lively acidity. Hints of forest floor, crushed stone and a touch of peppery spice add complexity, while the finish remains clean, supple and beautifully balanced. The 2023 vintage offers impressive depth and character for its level, delivering a pure and accessible expression of Burgundy Pinot Noir.
Ben’s Recommendation:
A wonderfully approachable Burgundy that overdelivers for its price point. Fresh, juicy and effortlessly drinkable, it pairs beautifully with roast chicken, duck, charcuterie, mushroom dishes and grilled salmon. Enjoy slightly cool and over the next 4–6 years while its vibrant fruit and elegant Pinot Noir character are at their peak.
