Note di degustazione
Soft, silky tannins set the backdrop for the 2011 Mazis-Chambertin. Sweet floral notes meld into red berries and cinnamon. Dried rose petal and violet nuances inform the layered, intensely perfumed finish. The flavors are pure, striking and lifted. In other words: classic Mazis. This is another wine that has developed beautifully over the last year.

Good deep red. Subtle aromas of redcurrant, chocolate and game. Densely packed and wild but less open to inspection today than the Clos de la Roche. For a wine dominated by flavors of musky redcurrant and spicy underbrush this is quite high-pitched on the palate. Finishes long and understated, with sneaky tannic clout. Lay this one down for at least seven or eight years.
Bright, deep ruby-red. Very reduced nose clears somewhat with air to reveal dark aromas of black fruits, licorice and violet. At once vibrant and sweet in the mouth, with a lightly gamey character, but much less expressive today than the Bonnes-Mares. Most impressive today on the very long if youthfully aggressive finish, which features complex, building tannins and a distinctive smoky minerality. This may well need a decade in bottle to absorb its (oak-driven) tannins.
About 70% whole bunch. Dark crimson. Very dense and pure without excess sweetness on the nose on this one. Gentle and sappy. Some freshness and sap. Lovely stuff. Though still a bit dry on the end. (JR)
