Tasting Notes

The 2014 Mazoyères-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru has a well-defined bouquet. Methol and licorice aromas develop in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins. I find this just a bit monotone towards the finish as if the wine runs out of ideas halfway through and tapers away. This is a perplexing Mazoyères.

Score: 88

Full dark red. Strong smoky minerality on the nose, with raspberry and spice notes emerging with air; less subtle than the Charmes today but more satisfying and expressive. Plush, fat and sweet on the palate, with the dark raspberry, spice, licorice and black pepper flavors currently dominated by saline minerality. Seriously dense, rich wine with a rising, palate-staining finish that throws off notes of underbrush, tobacco, iron and spices. The noble tannins owe largely to the high percentage of millerandé berries. A superb showing for this wonderfully silky wine, which will probably be for drinking after the Charmes.

Score: 94

As is usually the case with this wine it is much more deeply pitched and more obvious Gevrey in character with its pungently earth and animale aromas of various red and dark berries that are trimmed in subtle spice and sandalwood nuances. There is excellent volume and power to the full-bodied and muscular flavors that terminate in a very firm, deep and impressively persistent finish. This isn't particularly refined but the complexity is impressive.

Score: 92 - 94
