✨ Technical Specifications
Seguin-Manuel's Bourgogne Pinot Noir is a classic expression of Burgundy's signature red grape, crafted with the same meticulous care as the house's prestigious premier and grand crus. Sourced from carefully selected parcels across the clay-limestone soils of the Côte d'Or, this wine captures the vibrant, elegant essence of Pinot Noir. Under the guidance of Thibaut Marion, the grapes undergo traditional fermentation followed by aging in French oak casks. This process respects the delicate fruit while adding structure and complexity. The result is a wine rich with aromas of fresh red cherries, raspberries, and a touch of forest floor, embodying the centuries-old winemaking heritage of Beaune.
🍾 About the Producer
Originally established in Savigny-lès-Beaune in 1824, Domaine Seguin-Manuel was completely revitalized in 2004 when acquired by Thibaut Marion, a tenth-generation vigneron formerly of Chanson Père & Fils. Relocating headquarters and cellars to Beaune, Marion modernized winemaking facilities and assembled a domaine footprint spanning roughly 8.5 hectares across Savigny-lès-Beaune, Beaune, Pommard, Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet, and Vosne-Romanée, supplemented by a meticulous micro-négociant operation. Vineyard management adheres strictly to certified organic viticulture, utilizing rigorous canopy pruning, plowing to encourage deep root penetration, and deliberate low yields. In the cuverie, fruit is hand-harvested and sorted meticulously, followed by gentle vinification with native yeasts and maturation in fine-grained French oak with restrained new wood usage. Seguin-Manuel's benchmark bottlings—such as Beaune Premier Cru Clos des Mouches, Savigny-lès-Beaune Premier Cru Aux Guettes, and Puligny-Montrachet Premier Cru La Garenne—embody classical Côte de Beaune precision, marrying pure red and black fruit profiles or flinty mineral tension with supple, well-integrated structural depth.
