Tasting notes
The 2020 Mazis-Chambertin Grand Cru is not quite as expressive as the Latricières on the nose with blueberry and wild strawberry fruit, violet and crushed rock scents, the latter becoming more prominent with time in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, powerful and saturated in style, fleshy but nicely controlled on the finish. This should age very well in bottle - stylish and suave.

Erwan loves the Mazis this year. The colour is a full mid purple. The nose is a little bit more blockbuster, and certainly the palate offers a stunning raft of fruit built around a very controlled structure. This is a wine for the long term.
Cask sample. Mid crimson. Ripe but super-fresh and intense fruit. With a light spicy oak layer. Fresh, pure, moreish, with an elegance I haven't seen so far in this line-up. Long, delicate finish.
