Note di degustazione
The Pomerol region excelled in 2016, and the Château Mazeyres is an elegant, pure, silky wine that plays in the medium-bodied, classic style of the vintage nicely. Tasting like a Grand Cru Red Burgundy with its beautiful red fruits, forest floor, and spice, it hits the palate with ultra-fine tannins, outstanding balance, and a great finish. I’d love a little more flesh, but those who prioritize elegance and purity over power and richness will like this even more than me. It benefits from air and should drink nicely for over a decade.

The 2016 Mazeyres has a ripe, slightly smudged bouquet of red fruit, kirsch and stewed plums and a light marine scent. It needs more focus. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe tannin and a fine line of acidity, though it is less complex than the 2015 and feels pleasant but plays it safe on the finish.
Very primary aromas of crushed berries and flowers. Medium to full body and tight with polished, chewy tannins. Lovely at the end. Drink in 2022.
The 2016 Mazeyres presents an exotic profile laced with bright, high-toned aromatic and super-ripe red fruits. Blood orange, mint and floral notes all run through the wine This is a decidedly overt style of Pomerol and yet the 2016 remains gracious and medium in body, with the perfume that is typical of sandier soils.
