The Crushed Grape

Domaine Stéphane Magnien Coteaux Bourguignons “Pur Pinot Noir” 2023

Regular price £29.99

A pure and vibrant expression of Pinot Noir from Burgundy, offering bright red berry fruit, floral aromatics, silky texture, and refreshing acidity. Elegant, precise, and wonderfully approachable, it showcases the finesse and purity that have become hallmarks of Domaine Stéphane Magnien’s wines.

Domaine Stéphane Magnien Coteaux Bourguignons “Pur Pinot Noir” 2023 is a distinctive regional Burgundy produced entirely from Pinot Noir, highlighting the grape in its most transparent and accessible form. Unlike the domaine’s “Tradition” cuvée, which incorporates Gamay, this bottling focuses exclusively on Pinot Noir, allowing the variety’s elegance, aromatic lift, and terroir expression to take centre stage.

Red cherry, raspberry, wild strawberry, and cranberry are layered with violet, rose petal, subtle spice, and delicate earthy undertones. The palate is fresh and precise, supported by bright acidity and gentle mineral lift.

An ideal introduction to traditional Pinot Noir from Burgundy - elegant enough for enthusiasts, yet approachable enough for everyday enjoyment.

Description

Based in Morey-Saint-Denis in the Côte de Nuits, Stéphane Magnien has earned a reputation for crafting wines of purity, precision, and restraint. The family estate dates back several generations, and today the domaine is highly regarded for producing wines that prioritise balance and vineyard character rather than excessive extraction or oak influence.

The 2023 vintage delivered healthy fruit ripeness while retaining freshness and aromatic definition. In this wine, that translates into vibrant red fruit, silky tannins, and excellent drinkability. Vinification is handled carefully to preserve fruit purity, with maturation taking place in a combination of barrel and stainless steel before bottling, allowing freshness and Pinot Noir character to remain at the forefront.

Unlike many regional Burgundies that can feel diluted or simple, “Pur Pinot Noir” offers genuine Côte de Nuits craftsmanship. The wine captures the essential character of Burgundy Pinot Noir without the cost associated with village or Premier Cru appellations, making it particularly attractive for customers seeking authentic Burgundy at an accessible level.

Style

Domaine Stéphane Magnien Coteaux Bourguignons “Pur Pinot Noir” 2023 is a dry, light- to medium-bodied red with bright red fruit, lively acidity, and fine silky tannins. The exclusive use of Pinot Noir gives the wine greater finesse and purity than many blended regional Burgundies, while the 2023 vintage contributes attractive fruit generosity and charm.

The focus is firmly on freshness, elegance, and drinkability rather than concentration or oak. The wine feels energetic and precise, with the kind of balance that makes good Burgundy so appealing.
