Gevrey-Chambertin Aux Champs Chenys Frédéric Magnien 2019

The wine

Frédéric Magnien, the fifth generation to head the Michel Magnien family estate, set up his own trading house in the 1990s. Here, he offers us a Gevrey-Chambertin Village produced from fifty-year-old Pinot Noir meticulously cultivated in the area known as Champs-Chenys, just below the famous Charmes-Chambertin. There, in an oceanic climate with a semi-continental influence, the noble grape variety so typical of the region draws the nutrients it requires to thrive from the soil. This soil consists of stones, pebbles, limestone and iron.
