Region : Burgundy (France), France (France)
Bottle Per Case : 1 x 3000 ml
Food Pairing : Duck breast, Ham
"A full purple, heady at 13.8%, with a little new wood and an aspect of the nose where the oak is rather dominating, but no problem in the mouth with a weight of generous dark fruit covering the tannins behind. Good length as well. The nose should settle down and the finer qualities of this Corton assert themselves. Drink from 2030-2037. Tasted: November 2023.

The Magnien family is one of the oldest wine making families in Burgundy and in particular in Côte de Nuits thanks to the Domaine Henri Magnien, a family estate that took root in Gevrey Chambertin in the 1600s. No less than twelve generations have taken advantage of a magnificent plot made largely of old vines on Gevrey-Chambertin and Corton.
The estate as it exists today was set up by Henri Magnien in 1987, and presently operated by Charles Magnien. The vineyard covers 6 hectares of old vines (massal selection of the family). The culture and the vinification are rather traditional. Charles invested in the cellar to further increase the quality of the wines opening a new winery in 2018. The wines have a lot of charm, suppleness and elegance, with a classic use of the new barrel and a moderate extraction.
It's important to remember that taste is subjective, and personal preferences play a significant role.
