Just north of Clos St-Jacques, Cazetiers is an east-facing slope where Frédéric Magnien farms vines that range up to 90 years old. Like his other top wines, he vinifies part of this lot in used barrels and part in clay pots. When this combination of old-vine fruit and naked vinification hits, as it does in this Gevrey, Magnien unleashes the beautiful energy of his vineyard. Here, the texture bristles with red-fruit generosity and a mineral wash of crushed stone. Scented with summery black-raspberry flavor, saturated with freshness, this is lovely to drink as a young Burgundy and should age with grace.
