Domaine Henri Magnien continues to prove why Charles Magnien is firmly established as one of Gevrey-Chambertin’s rising stars. The 2024 vintage is a clear success here, with exceptional definition between cuvées and a masterclass in terroir expression. This is Magnien firing on all cylinders. His '4 Carac'Terres' blends fruit from four distinct plots within the appellation to build something more expressive than any single parcel might manage alone. The name says it all: four characters, four soils, one wine that captures the breadth of what Gevrey's hillside can do. In magnum, the whole proposition shifts up a gear. More wine, slower ageing, more time for the parts to find each other.
