About this wine
Domaine Henri Magnien 1er cru Cazetiers, Gevrey-Chambertin
Situated to the east of the village of Gevrey-Chambertin, Les Cazetiers–an 8.43-hectare vineyard–is on the northern border of the much-coveted Clos Saint-Jacques. Viticulture in the Le Cazetiers takes lutte raisonnée approach while converting to organic.
Neighbouring Clos Saint-Jacques should increase the demand for the wines from this cru more than it does. Behind its famous neighbour, Les Cazetiers is widely regarded as the best crus in Gevrey-Chambertin (with Les Combottes a following). Les Cazetiers relative lack of acclaim makes this one of the go-to crus for smart buying in Burgundy.
'...this is an exciting emerging domaine with which consumers are warmly advised to acquaint themselves'

The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cazetiers 1er Cru, which Magnien describes as his "garden" that has technically been around since 1656, has a compelling bouquet with black plum, quince and crushed limestone scents that unfold in the glass. It gains intensity with just a few swirls. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins. This is the silkiest of Magnien's cuvées with a seductive and persistent finish that just seems to "glide" across the senses. There is real panache here. Superb.

A fine glowing fresh crimson purple colour. This is as ever the star of the cellar. It is a wine of perfect poise, with middling intensity, a high class fine ripe red fruit with occasional points of something closer to black, a saline touch which is the Cazetiers minerality expressing itself. Finishes on pure red fruit. A fine, subtle Cazetiers. Drink from 2027-2035.

The flinty nose (from a slight reduction) has a touch of blood orange, but this racy Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru also has impressive depth and structure. Needs some time to open up and for the generous fine tannins to fully harmonize, but excellent potential. Best after 2025.

While the Magnien family has been operating in Burgundy since the mid-1600s, Domaine Henri Magnien et Fils was established in 1987 by Henri for himself, his son François and his grandson Charles. After working side-by-side with his father, Charles took the reins in 2009 and is now considered to be in the vanguard of the young, energetic winemakers in the Gevrey-Chambertin and the Côte de Nuits.
Domaine Henri Magnien is a small family-owned and run estate of a mere six hectares of vineyard holdings. What they lack in hectarage they make up for in undoubted Gevrey-Chambertin quality. The Magnien family’s inexorable march to organic viticulture has been going for years with around 80% already complete. Charles, considered to be one of Burgundy’s rising stars, employs Selection Massale, or Massal Selection, to plant his more recent vineyards with cutting selections made from 70 to 100-year-old vines. These clonal selections are known as Pinot Magnien (the family has been around for a while) and are widely considered to be the best in the appellation. They are much sought-after and used by the likes of Jérôme Galeyrand.
The Domaine also has many of the very best vineyards, including Lavaux Saint-Jacques, Les Cazetiers and Ruchottes-Chambertin.
