2022, Domaine Henri Magnien, GEVREY-CHAMBERTIN, 1er Cru, 'Lavaux St. Jacques'

Once again the nose is ripe yet cool with its blends of both red and dark berries, plenty of sauvage character and a smoky hint. There is excellent volume and better concentration to the larger-bodied and powerful flavours that conclude in a muscular and sneaky long finish that is very firmly structured, indeed at least a decade will be necessary for this to become suitably approachable. 91-93 Allen Meadows, Burghound (2024).
