90-92 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes comes from eight parcels from 40 years old to some planted in 1915. Always one of my favorite cuvées from Magnien, this is more defined and energetic than the regular Gevrey, offering Morello cherries, strawberries and rose petals. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grain tannins and a mixture of red and black fruit, supple in texture. It is not a concentrated Gevrey but feels very cohesive towards the finish. Give this puppy a couple of years in bottle. Drink: 2026-2038. (Jan 2024)"
89-91 points/'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from 40 to 100-year-old vines located in 8 different lieux-dits though one-third of the blend is from Les Journaux in Brochon). An exceptionally pretty, even perfumed, nose freely offers up more elegant aromas where the fruit derives more from the red side of the spectrum. There is again a lovely sense of verve to the detailed and denser flavors that possess slightly better complexity and persistence on the balanced and youthfully austere finale that has the stuffing to repay up to a decade of keeping. Drink: 2029+. (Jan 2024)"
90 points/'Very Good,' Steen Öhman (Winehog): "For me, this is where the party starts at Magnien. Much livelier, this is vivid and delicate. The vineyard was planted in 1915, so well over 100 years old, and this shows in the mid-palate fruit. Lovely length, and a pleasurable, silky generosity. Yes, please! Drink from 2032. (2/12/24)"
