Wine Critic Reviews
The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes is excellent, delivering notes of orange rind, red berries, peonies, candied peel and plums. Medium to full-bodied, layered and charming, it's supple and perfumed, with a lively, nicely concentrated core of fruit and a seamless, elegant profile. This is one of Magnien's finest communal bottlings to date.

The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Village comes from seven parcels of vines between six and 40 years old. Matured with 15% whole bunch, it has a perfumed bouquet of vibrant red fruit infused with touches of crushed violet. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly chewy tannins and lightly spiced, leading to a tangy, curry-leaf-tinged finish. A fine Gevrey that should present a decade of drinking pleasure.
