✨ Technical Specifications
Representing the pinnacle of Côte de Beaune elegance, Seguin-Manuel's Premier Cru red Burgundies are a testament to the house's historic legacy dating back to 1824. Crafted from Pinot Noir grown in prestigious climates across appellations like Beaune and Savigny-lès-Beaune, these wines reflect the meticulous organic viticulture championed by Thibaut Marion. The soils, rich in limestone and clay, impart a distinct mineral tension and structural depth to the grapes. In the cellar, traditional, low-intervention methods prevail: gentle maceration, fermentation with native yeasts, and patient aging in French oak casks. The resulting wines are celebrated for their refined, silky tannins, vibrant red fruit aromatics of cherry and raspberry, and complex earthy undertones, embodying the classic, terroir-driven spirit of Burgundy's historic heart.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1824, Maison Seguin-Manuel is a historic Burgundy producer located in the heart of Beaune, France. The estate entered a dynamic new era in 2004 when it was acquired by Thibaut Marion, born into a multi-generational Burgundian wine family, who revitalized its historic cellars and expanded its vineyard holdings. Operating with certified organic farming methods, the domaine emphasizes sustainable viticulture, low yields, and gentle, traditional vinification to honor the purity of Burgundy's terroir. Seguin-Manuel is renowned for its elegant, expressive range of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay wines spanning premier appellations across both the Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits.
