Domaine Henri Magnien 2-Bottle Gift Pack (15% DISC)

Spoil your Burgandy lover with the hottest new name in Burgandy!  This wonderful two-pack gift combines two highly acclaimed and well reviewed wines from the outstanding 2020 vintage.  

 2020 Henri Magnien Aloxe-Corton 1er La Coutiere

A slightly riper nose of baked plum, warm earth and a smoky wisp gives way to delicious and caressing medium weight flavors that culminate in a lingering and moderately rustic finale.  Burghound 88-91

Rich purple, the warm site of La Coutière delivers a slightly more cooked fruit on the nose. However the wine grows on the palate because there is a fresher, juicier red fruit behind, a little bit of peach, good acidity. Charles does not punch down this or the Corton to avoid firm tannins. Tasted: November 2021 Jasper Morris 88-90

Aromas of cassis, plums and sweet forest floor, framed by creamy new oak, introduce the 2020 Aloxe-Corton 1er Cru La Coutière, a medium to full-bodied, rich and structured wine built around lively acids and powdery tannins.  William Kelley 91

2020 Henri Magnien Gevrey Chambertin Vieilles Vignes

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.  Burghound 89-92 Ooutstanding Top Value!

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. Tasted: November 2021  Jasper Morris 91-93

Richer and deeper-pitched, the 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes mingles aromas of wild berries and plums with hints of baking chocolate, sweet spices and peonies. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and textural, it's layered and fleshy, with an ample core of fruit, powdery tannins and lively balancing acids. William Kelley 90+
