Sebastien Magnien,
Ready, but will improve,
Old vines in a fine location make a superb wine given its lowly appellation. Pretty, bright mid-purple, this is quite deliciously perfumed with raspberry and ripe cherry and a good oak component. It has really juicy, ripe, concentrated yet balanced fruit, still with crunchiness behind. Drink 2019-2023.

Sébastien began picking his whites on 31st August, then paused before attacking the reds. He made no change to his usual vinification practice of long maceration without forceful extraction, having de-stemmed the grapes. Sébastien comments positively on the well ripened tannins and notes that the wines have been tasting well throughout their time in barrel.

Sebastien Magnien,
For laying down,
A lovely pale-ish colour and perfume, this is a most elegant style of Pommard, still with the correct structure for good ageing. Nonetheless it is the fruit which wins out on the palate, a concentration of little red berries, with a very long finish. Drink 2022-2028.

No relation to the Côte de Nuits Magniens, young Sébastien comes instead from Meloisey in the Hautes Cotes de Beaune – a village whose wines were as well thought of as those of Volnay in the 14th century, and were served at the coronation of King Philip II Augustus in 1180.
However to be in the thick of things Sébastien has transferred headquarters to revamped cellars in the middle of Meursault. White wines come from the Hautes Côtes, St Romain and Meursault, the red wines from Volnay, Pommard and the Hautes Côtes including an excellent Clos des Perrières from Meloisey.
