Michel Magnien Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru 'Cazetiers' 2023

Concentrated and sophisticated Pinot noir with a deep, earthy undertone, highlighted by the sweetness of ripe plums and a subtle hint of vanilla, accompanied by a touch of herbal freshness - a truly impressive wine.

Rich, full-bodied wine with a rich garnet robe, augmented by a complex nose of black cherry, plum, and sweet spice, with hints of dried fruit and cocoa. The taste is concentrated, with a soft structure and a long, peppery finish.

Wine with a understated yet distinct aroma, featuring a accent of plum and a more pronounced strawberry note. while it showed promise, its flavor profile was somewhat marred by a slightly reduced plum presence. Decanting this wine did little to alleviate its lack of air, resulting in a somewhat one-dimensional tasting experience. Nevertheless, it was an inviting experience, with a notable dryness and a pleasant, aromatic finish. The tannins were noticeable, but the altogether body and seamlessness were well-balanced. Unfortunately, this wine's finish was short-lived, leaving it a bit of a disappointment. Despite its shortcomings, I still enjoyed this wine, distinctly its gentle tannins and dry, aromatic character. I will miss it, as it was the last bottle available.
