Note di degustazione
This chateau’s first year of biodynamic viticulture has proven more than just a trend. Newly-invigorated vines produced concentrated and tensely balanced fruit. The wine is sturdy and floral with ginger cake and delicious sweet Christmas spice on the nose, while the body remains tight and well-structured. This style was the quintessence of the vintage.

The 2012 Mazeyres is a big, powerful wine with serious intensity of fruit. Green tannins attenuate the mid-palate and finish, detracting from the wine's overall balance.
A blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc (a traditional blend for the Right Bank appellations of Pomerol and, to a lesser extent, St.-Emilion), this wine offers attractive notes of sweet and sour black cherries, licorice and a touch of mulberry. It is medium-bodied, soft, round and best drunk over the next 8-10 years. A little more complexity would have resulted in a higher score.
