The 2021 Mazy-Chambertin Grand Cru has more fruit concentration on the nose compared with the Charmes-Chambertin; it's well-defined, with blue fruit hints underlying the red cherries and crushed strawberry, gentle building in the glass. The palate is very satisfying with fine-boned tannins that frame the dark cherry and raspberry fruit, segueing into a slightly saline finish. Not as complex as other vintages that I have tasted at this stage, but it is very composed and should give 15-18 years of drinking pleasure.
A fuller purple with rather a reductive nose, but one can still see all the fruit. Indeed, there is something quite sensual coming up behind. A lean intensity across the palate, a touch of graphite, definitely some mineral energy, the Mazy-Chambertin works very well this year.
