WE LOVE IT BECAUSE:
This wine is sourced from the most significant premier cru plot in the domains holdings, notably favoured by Charles. The parcels span all four different soil types within the Cazetier vineyard and have an average vine age of 90 years. These vines include the proprietary Pinot Magnien clone, a distinctive mutation of Pinot Noir. Discovered 100+ years ago by the Magnien family, and known for small berries with dense, concentrated flavour and intense aromatics. This wine is textbook Gevrey-Chambertin. Vibrant red and black fruit flavours compliment earthy, herbal notes and a prominent mineral character wrapped in silky tannins and oak. This vintage saw consistent quality but smaller yields so supply is limited.
