You can make out the village of Verzenay as you thunder south of Reims on the Autoroute du Soleil. It’s the village nestling below the tree line on the Montagne de Reims (which is more of a gentle incline than a mountain), the one with the windmill and the lighthouse, which was a folly and is now a wine museum. Magali runs the tiny, fifth generation, family domaine which carries her father’s name. We all love her excellent bottlings from the 2004 vintage.
