Champeaux is Gevrey-Chambertin's northernmost Premier Cru vineyard, next to the boundary of the village of Brochon. Its easterly exposure means it is protected from the prevailing westerly weather, and it faces the morning sun, while encountering shade in the late afternoon. It has exceptionally shallow, rocky, well-drained soil, leading to concentrated wines, although these often have firmer, more 'rustic' tannins than those from Gevrey-Chambertin's south-facing Premier and Grand crus. These characteristics mean that Magnien's sensitive winemaking style are perfect to coax finesse and gentleness from this stony terroir.

Press Review
" The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Champeaux bursts with aromas of plums, wild berries, rose petals and warm spices. Medium to full-bodied, lively and concentrated, with bright acids and rich, velvety tannins, it's deep and seamless, concluding with a long, perfumed finish. Drink 2025-2045 "
