Famous for producing top-tier Burgundies under his own label, Freddy Magnien’s secret trump card is that of his own family vines. From a modest village-level vineyard still tended by his father, Michel, their old vine parcel in Les Seuvrées delivers the texture and depth that puts a lesser man's Grand Cru to shame.
