A collector since university, more than 30 years ago, this consignor was on his school’s wine tasting team in England and was fortunate to have access to the university’s cellars to taste and learn about fine wines. He developed an appreciation for age worthy wines and began to purchase and carefully store them. Later in life he became friends with winemakers in old and new world regions and was able to purchase highly allocated wines through them. He also buys wine from agents and the LCBO and occasionally from auction and all bottles go directly to storage at Iron Gate.
The rating for 2019 Henri Magnien Corton Les Grandes Lolieres Grand Cru is 93 points from Robert Parker and the tasting note - Another success is the 2019 Corton Grand Cru Grandes Lolières, a full-bodied, muscular wine that's one of the more primary, slow-evolving cuvées in the cellar. Evocative of cherries, smoke, soil tones, cassis, spices and plums, it's rich and layered, with lively acids and a deft patina of oak. Happily ensconced in his new winery, Charles Magnien continues his rapid ascent through the Burgundian firmament. Reporting yields in the region of 37 hectoliters per hectare, he began picking on September 13. This year, we took the opportunity to walk through the domaine's holdings in Cazetiers, which are very nicely maintained - hedged comparatively high, with cultivated soils and planted with the family's own massal selections. In the cuverie, vinification is gentle, with fermentation temperatures kept comparatively cool and pump-overs rather than punch-downs. New oak, largely from Tonnellerie Cavin, is increasingly deftly employed. And the result? 2019 is the finest vintage this domaine has produced to date - supple, seductive and perfumed, these are wines of immense charm that will turn heads in their youth but which have the substance and energy to age with grace, too. As the market starts to take notice, now is the time to secure allocations.
