The aim is unapologetically grand: identify Oregon's Grand Cru sites and bottle them with site-specific precision

Jacques-Frederic Mugnier Bonnes Mares 2023 [NET] Old Rioja Drink 2027 through 2040Frederic Mugnier farms a narrow 0. 36 hectare strip of Bonnes Mares, on the Chambolle Musigny side of this Grand Cru straddling the Chambolle Morey border. In his hands it's the most powerful and structured wine in a famously perfumed cellar, but power Mugnier style still means grace: silky texture, lift and transparency over brawn. Production is tiny and the wine is rare. This is Pinot Noir built for the long haul, so cellar it.
