  My last bottle from Magnien, not too familiar with this producer and mostly for me too concentrated and lacking the Chambolle finesse, enormous fruit showing, dark and rich, dense, but I am missing the wow-factor today, maybe needs more time in the bottle, you never know......, maybe I changed my preferences over the years too? **(*-?)

  Next bottle of this fine stuff, concentrated fruit appearance with a very black fruit, depth, some hints of forest soil, improving with aeration, impressive elegant swallowing, nearly on top now, ending mineralic and long, drink now and over the next 5+ years, ***(+-?)

  found this one in a small retail store at my home town, unbelievable concentrated fruit nose, some cassis, brambleberry, like coming from a perfume atomizer, on the palate really fine concentration, going down like 10W- 40 oil, very spicy though, concentrated and very much black fruit all covered like wearing velvet gloves........, will improve by some more years in the cellar, but this wine already is fun and games! **(**), 90- 92+?
