"More serious and structured. Acid-driven with vivid red berries, firm, grippy tannins, and real depth beneath the surface. Long, persistent finish and excellent ageing potential."
Stewart Pryce, Honest Grapes Wine Club Manager
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 Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has a conservative nose compared to other cuvées yet one that is very well defined, a mixture of red and black fruit, black tea and undergrowth scents percolating through with time. The palate is more expressive with juicy red cherry and strawberry fruit (juicy not being a commonly used word in 2024), gentle grip with a dash of cracked black pepper towards the finish. Classy. Delicious."
