“La Démarrante” is exactly what the name suggests—the bottle that gets things started. Made by Maxime Magnon in the hills of the Languedoc, this wine shows the lighter, more playful side of a region better known for power. Sourced from organically farmed vines and made with a gentle hand in the cellar, it’s all about freshness, energy, and drinkability.
The 2023 opens with bright red berries, crushed herbs, and a subtle savory edge that feels unmistakably southern without ever turning heavy. The palate is juicy and supple, with fine tannins and a clean, refreshing finish that makes you want another pour. Chill it slightly and it really comes alive.
This is Magnon at his most relaxed—natural without being funky, expressive without trying too hard. A go-to red for weeknight dinners, casual gatherings, or anytime you want something delicious that doesn’t demand too much attention (but still rewards it).
