RATINGS

94-96Vinous / IWC

...intense red fruit, rose petal and undergrowth aromas...tangible marine influence at play here. The palate is medium-bodied with very good structure. Elegant and poised toward the finish, which leaves hints of tobacco and truffle on the aftertaste. Superb.

93-95The Wine Advocate

Aromas of sweet berry fruit, rich forest floor, smoked meats, wild plums and licorice...medium to full-bodied, pretty and fine-boned rendition... Velvety but precise, it's built around bright acids and sumptuous tannins.

18.5Jancis Robinson

Very powerful nose, then lovely sweet fruit. Dances on the palate and very sweet and charming already with a fine spine.

91-94Burghound.com

...wonderfully spicy nose consists of ripe aromas of poached plum, violet, the sauvage, newly turned humus-suffused earth and slightly more evident wood. The middle weight plus flavors possess excellent intensity and muscle along with plenty of minerality that becomes more apparent on the beautifully long finish where the only nit is a trace of warmth.

REGION

France, Burgundy, Côte d'Or, Côte de Nuits, Gevrey Chambertin, Mazis-Chambertin

Mazis-Chambertin is a 22.4 acre Grand Cru vineyard near the village of Gevrey-Chambertin. The name Mazis is sometimes spelled with a “y” or without the final “s.” The soil is shallow and somewhat rocky, and the wine made from this vineyard is considered excellent. The legendary Lalou Bize of Maison Leroy is one of the smaller landholders with about .6 of an acre. There are some 30 proprietors with parcels in Mazis-Chambertin. The largest are Hospices de Beaune, with 4.38 acres; Bernard Dugat-Py, with 3.05 acres; and Joseph Faiveley, with 3 acres.

TYPE

Red Wine, Pinot Noir, Grand Cru

This red wine is relatively light and can pair with a wide variety of foods. The grape prefers cooler climates and the wine is most often associated with Burgundy, Champagne and the U.S. west coast. Regional differences make it nearly as fickle as it is flexible.
