Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy, 2020 Côte de Nuits North: Chambolle-Musigny to Marsannay (11/1/2021)
(Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes, Domaine Henri Magnien, Red) "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. 91-93 points"
Henri Magnien Description
"Charles Magnien is the twelfth generation at his family’s domaine in Gevrey Chambertin. They have six hectares of vines, mostly in Gevrey in some key parcels, Ruchottes, Lavaut Saint Jacques, Cazetiers, and Champeaux. The famous vineyards garner the attention, but equally as rich as the land is the old vines. In 1850, the family discovered a mutation of Pinot Noir, which was named after the family, Pinot Magnien. The Pinot Magnien is a part of the blend in their Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes cuvee where the oldest vines are 100 years-old. Charles took over from his father in 2009 and immediately invested his energy and efforts in the vineyards where he is working with a higher canopy. He is following organic agriculture, but will treat if necessary. Charles Magnien is the first in his family to bottle all of the wine that they grow and now with more than ten vintages under his belt, the Henri Magnien wines are quickly becoming recognized as some of the best in the village."

(Domaine Henri Magnien Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles VIgnes Red) "The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes has a delightful, mineral-driven bouquet with redcurrant, raspberry preserve and crushed stone. Quintessentially Gevrey. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins, gentle grip, a nice bitter cherry undertow with a lingering saline finish. This is well worth seeking out. (Drink between 2024-2038) (90-92) points"

Burghound, Jan-22, Issue #85
(Domaine Henri Magnien et Fils Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes Villages Red) "A deft application of wood can be found on the ripe aromas of poached plum, cassis, humus and newly turned earth. There is excellent density to the mouth coating medium weight plus flavors that evidence fine power on the long, serious and youthfully austere but not rustic finale. An impressive villages. (Drink starting 2030) 89-92 points"
