Domaine Henri Magnien continues to prove why Charles Magnien is firmly established as one of Gevrey-Chambertin’s rising stars. The 2024 vintage is a clear success here, with exceptional definition between cuvées and a masterclass in terroir expression.
The classics shine as ever: Cazetiers and Lavaux St-Jacques deliver depth, structure, and serious ageing potential, while Estournelles St-Jacques offers a more lifted, elegant expression. But the real curiosity is Gevrey-Chambertin XV – a one-off bottling born from reduced yields, blending fruit from 15 different lieux-dits into a remarkably coherent and charming whole. It’s not a style we’ll see again, and it comes highly recommended.
This is Magnien firing on all cylinders, with wines that reward both immediate enjoyment and long-term patience.
What the critics say:
"The 2024 Gevrey-Chambertin 4 Carac'terres 1er Cru has a nose that feels incongruous among Magnien's line-up: very peppery due to the 100%whole bunch and 100% new oak. Quite forceful. The palate is dense with just a touch of volatility lending animation. Touches of blood orange and plenty of wood tannins on the finish, as you would expect. It will be fascinating to see this in a decade's time."
