2020 Henri Magnien Gevrey Chambertin 1er Champeaux

More subtle though still perceptible wood sets off ripe dark berry aromas, especially cassis, along with hints of game and earth. There is excellent volume to the sappy but solidly punchy flavors that exude a refreshing salinity on the balanced and youthfully austere finish. This is sufficiently firm to require at least some patience and wine that should reward 12+ years of keeping. Burghound 91-93 Outstanding!

Purple in colour of medium plus density. Has reduced the new oak here which slightly softens the bouquet in an attractive way. A fine perfumed nose, floral notes underpinned by the raspberries of the vintage, graceful and very persistent. This is extremely nicely done. Fine. Tasted: November 2021 Jasper Morris 92-95

The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Champeaux bursts with aromas of plums, wild berries, rose petals and warm spices. Medium to full-bodied, lively and concentrated, with bright acids and rich, velvety tannins, it's deep and seamless, concluding with a long, perfumed finish.  William Kelley 92+
