Tasting notes
The 2016 Mazis-Chambertin Grand Cru, which debuted in 2014, is the first vintage that Arnaud Mortet feels is part of the domaine. This was not affected by frost and was picked at 35 hectoliters per hectare. It has a ripe and intense bouquet with the 70% new oak and 50% whole bunch deftly integrated, very harmonious with superb mineral undertones. The palate is very poised, nicely structured, here the whole bunch more evident and lending and earthiness toward the masculine finish that indicates serious longevity. This is an astonishingly good sequel to the awesome 2015 Mazis. Dec 2017, www.robertparker.com

About the producer
This estate, today with Arnaud Mortet at the helm, makes some of Gevrey-Chambertin’s finest wines. Working with 16 hectares, as well as a few négociant parcels, this property makes perfumed and chiselled Pinot Noir.
