Tasting notes
The 2019 Mazis-Chambertin Grand Cru is considerably more demonstrative from bottle than it was from barrel. Mingling aromas of wild berries and plums with notions of peonies, blood orange, exotic spices, incense and crushed mint, it's full-bodied, velvety and layered, with immense depth and concentration, lively acids, beautifully ripe tannins and a long, resonant finish. More seamless and less primordial than the brilliant 2018, the two wines are very close in quality but quite different in style.

The 2019 Mazis-Chambertin Grand Cru, one of my favorite cuvées from Dugat-Py, does not disappoint this year. It contains 80% whole bunch with 75% new oak. Wonderful black cherries, bilberry and sea spray aromas feature on a nose that is extraordinarily focused and brimming over with energy. The palate is medium-bodied with saturated but firm tannins that frame multi-tiered black fruit laced with tobacco and graphite. Very precise on the finish, which lingers for 45+ seconds. Brilliant.
Cask sample. Rich blackberry nose. Very sumptuous even if without the race of the Mazoyères. Concentrated and youthful. Tastes so healthy. Tastes like a medicine! (JR)
