Gevrey-Chambertin, Côte de Nuits, Burgundy, France
2013, huge monster, needs at least 10 more years. Super dark fruits and a hint of pine.

Holding up remarkably well from the hot 2003 vintage, the Jeunes-Rois from Frederic Magnien is quite good. Still retaining a lot of fruit given its age, the wine had some great secondary aromas, was balanced, and had a nice, lingering finish. Evolved nicely in the glass over the course of an hour or so, too. Wish I had a few more of these in the cellar!
