The Maxime Magnon estate in a few words
Maxime Magnon is one of Corbières' most talented winemakers. He manages his 14 hectares of organically-farmed vineyards. Maxime makes well-balanced Corbières, with as little intervention in the cellar as possible and always with respect for the fruit.
Great, elegant Corbières, unique in this region. Domaine Maxime Magnon's wines are characterized by an elegance that is rare in this region, and a finesse on the palate that is quite astonishing! A style apart that can only be described as brilliant!
The wines of the domaine Maxime Magnon deserve a few years of cellaring to fully blossom, especially the cuvée la Bégou in white and Campagnés in red!
Guide des meilleurs vins de France 2020, domaine 1 étoile: "Maxime Magnon was influenced by the Beaujolais school (cold maceration, minimal use of sulfur). He has cleverly retained the best of this approach to define a style that is perfectly in place today, still characterized by its great digestibility, endowed with a remarkable finesse of texture and precision of flavor. This style remains unique in Corbières, even if the wines express the characters of the terroir with greater depth than in the past."

Les cuvées de Maxime Magnon
Rozeta has a lot of finesse and freshness: in a blind tasting, it's hard to recognize a Corbières.
Campagnes is a more structured cuvée, but the tannins are silky smooth and the magic happens after a few years of cellaring.
Maxime Magnon's Bégou is a white Corbière, deep and complex, solar and saline at the same time, a great gastronomic white.
Finally, Métisse is a rosé, rare because so little is produced, but with a perfume and complexity to shame all those who think rosé isn't a real wine!
