Vinous (93-95)
The 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cazetiers 1er Cru has the ripest and most sensual of Magnien's cuvées on the nose, adorned with lush red cherry, raspberry and light fig scents. There's a soupçon of exoticism in situ. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, quite fleshy in the mouth with good grip and density. There is more horsepower even when contrasted against the Ruchottes-Chambertin. Lingers wonderfully on the finish. Excellent.Inc. TAX€829.68 -

An even crimson ruby colour. The fruit is more immediate than the Ruchottes. This is seamless across the palate and leaves a gorgeously balanced feeling of little red fruits at the finish, entirely covering the tannins, which in any case are refined. There is a little minerality too as befits Cazetiers. Really a lovely stylish finale.Inc. TAX€878.14 -
Burghound (91-93)
(from a .33 ha holding of ~55-year-old vines). A cooler and airier nose combines notes of red and dark currant with those of spice, earth and a whiff of game. The markedly more finely textured flavors exude an almost pungent minerality on the impressively persistent and beautifully well-balanced finale. This is pretty much textbook ESJ with its combination of power and finesse. In a word, excellent. (91-93)/2029+Inc. TAX€770.63 -
Burghound (91-94)
(from a .33 ha holding of ~55-year-old vines). Once again, the wood treatment is discreet but not invisible on the ripe and very fresh aromas of poached plum, cassis and pretty floral wisps. The racy, detailed and intense middle weight flavors possess a more sophisticated mouthfeel thanks to the fine-grained tannins, all wrapped in a youthfully austere, balanced and impressively long finale. Excellent. (91-94)/2032+Inc. TAX€628.08 -

The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Estournelles Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has a delectable bouquet with brambly red berry fruit, crushed rose petals, cold stone and light seaweed scents. Really complex and quite compelling. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins. This is well balanced with satisfying substance. Maybe it does not quite have the mineralité and complexity of Mortet's Lavaux on the finish, yet I feel it will evolve in the bottle. Give it three or four years. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.Inc. TAX€785.28 -
Burghound (90-93)
(from a .33 ha holding of ~55-year-old vines). This is aromatically quite similar to the Champeaux with perhaps just a bit more elegance. The mid-palate mouthfeel of the medium-bodied flavors is finer still with more minerality as well that adds a sense of lift to the moderately austere finish where the supporting tannins are firm and slightly angular. I like the balance but this will need time to round off the structureInc. TAX€795.34 -
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92-95)
Medium crimson colour. Fine and racy, elegant pinot here on this very white soil. Then it kicks on really very well on the palate, a lacy touch, silky across the refined tannins and with a long graceful finish. Very good. Charles held back and picked the Estournelles on September 15th, a decision which seems to have paid off Drink from 2030-2036. Tasted Nov 2024.Inc. TAX€689.74 -
Vinous (94)
The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has a flamboyant bouquet of kirsch, crushed stone, orange blossom and black truffle, the 30% whole cluster neatly enmeshed. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and great delineation on the finish. One of the most saline of Magnien’s cuvées. Excellent.Inc. TAX€1,000.08 -

Vinous (92-94)
The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has a complex and outgoing bouquet with redcurrant, cranberry and raspberry fruit exploding from the glass. There is no holding back here vis-à-vis other cuvées. The palate is medium-bodied with candied orange peel infusing the vivacious and slightly tart red fruit, but I appreciate the sharpness, almost flintiness towards the finish and the bitterness on the aftertaste that compels another sip.

Vinous (90-92)
The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Champeaux 1er Cru comes from 33-year-old vines adjacent to Evocelles. The nose takes more time to settle compared to the Champerrier, gradually evolving attractive briar and black currant aromas and sous-bois and mulch-like scents. The palate is medium-bodied and gently grippy on the entry. This is more structured than the Champerrier, with a little chewiness on the finish. Good potential, but it needs three to five years in bottle.Inc. TAX€615.83 -

Vinous (90-92)
The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Champeaux 1er Cru has a touch of reduction on the nose, showing a mixture of red and black fruit, background marmalade and Seville orange scents that are quite complex and well-defined. The palate is medium-bodied with a sweet core of maraschino cherry and blood orange, finely chiselled tannins and a bright finish. This should give 12-15 years of drinking pleasure.Inc. TAX€615.66 -
(6x75cl) 2020Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (89-91)
The fruit comes from 7 plots mostly on the lower slopes and up to 39 years old. Fine vibrant mid purple, sturdy too, but this time the fruit comes across a little fresher. Once again there is some fairly powerful structure here in dark raspberry mode, just a little bit savoury to finish, but notably longer than the Bourgogne. Tasted: November 2021Inc. TAX€546.48 -

Burghound (90-92)
(from a .28 ha holding). A notably ripe but agreeably fresh and earthy nose speaks of cassis, violet and plum that is trimmed in discreet but not invisible oak. There is outstanding richness to the impressively concentrated and generously proportion flavors that are shaped by a moderately firm tannic spine that belies just a hint of rusticity on the lingering finish where the only reproach is a nuance of warmth. This is a really good Gevrey villages. (90-92)/2027+Inc. TAX€396.94 -

Vinous (89-91)
The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Champerrier, matured in one-third new oak, has a higher-toned nose than the Vieilles Vignes. Blueberry hints poke through the veneer of red fruit, and there's a little more new wood that will need to assimilate with bottle age. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, quite sweet and slightly confit in style, perhaps not displaying the complexity or mineralité of the Vieilles Vignes, though there is appealing succulence on the finish.Inc. TAX€434.39 -
(1x75cl) 2018Vinous (89-91)
The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes comes from seven parcels of vines between 40 and 100 years old. There are blackberry, boysenberry and briar scents on the nose, which is quite dense and more backward than the regular Gevrey. The palate is medium-bodied with a saline, licorice-tinged entry and very fine weight in the mouth. There is some new oak on the finish that will need to be subsumed. Give this three or four years once in bottle.Inc. TAX€119.04 -
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (91-93)
40 to 100 years plus, the oldest being a plot of Epointures planted in 1915, and mostly well placed above the road. The nose offers a depth and weight of dark fruit without too much detail. There is more in the way of plump ripe raspberry fruit on the palate, more juice and less structure at the back. Really continues through extremely well. Tasted: November 2021Inc. TAX€380.88 -
Vinous (91-93)
A mixture of 40-year-old vines and vines a century old (the oldest planted in 1915), the 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes, aged in 25% new oak, is perfumed and floral on the nose, displaying a melange of incense and iris flower with dark cherries and raspberry. Full of joie-de-vivre. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins. It's quite fleshy and ripe but with underlying mineralité that pushes through on the finish. Excellent.Inc. TAX€361.68 -
Vinous (90-92)
The 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes comes from eight parcels from 40 years old to some planted in 1915. Always one of my favorite cuvées from Magnien, this is more defined and energetic than the regular Gevrey, offering Morello cherries, strawberries and rose petals. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grain tannins and a mixture of red and black fruit, supple in texture. It is not a concentrated Gevrey but feels very cohesive towards the finish. Give this puppy a couple of years in bottle.Inc. TAX€434.66 -
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (90-93)
A depth of ruby purple. This is tenser and more backward, with more prominent tannins and good acidity. The fruit has a slightly darker raspberry feel to it. This will need significantly longer. The wood tannins are a little fresh. If you want a wine to drink a little earlier, then the straight Gevrey-Chambertin would be the choice. Drink from 2029-2034. Tasted Nov 2024.Inc. TAX€414.94 -

The 2015 Ruchottes-Chambertin Grand Cru was aged in 50% new oak. Well-defined scents of mulberry and strawberry emerge on the nose, with candied orange peel and tangerine emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with a sweet, Grenache-like entry. This is a little heady, maybe, and perhaps it feels a little too sweet on the finish. Nonetheless, there is plenty of enjoyment to be found here.Inc. TAX€1,573.68 -
