MAZIS CHAMBERTIN
2014 Grand Cru Domaine Faiveley
Bright, full red. Musky, complex aromas of raspberry, dried flowers, crushed rock, black pepper, game, dark chocolate and earth. Shows much more definition and inner-mouth lift than the Charmes, with the peppery quality and firm underlying minerality energizing the middle palate. Savory, concentrated, layered and deep, with terrific berry intensity and a hint of cocoa powder. Taut and classically dry but not particularly austere. Finishes with serious, fine-grained tannins and terrific rising length. This very tight wine will need extended cellaring to soften and expand.

Brilliant aromas and flavours of cherry, strawberry, currant and mineral highlight this complex red. Intense and elegant, building to a kaleidoscopic finish. Structured and harmonious, showing terrific ageing potential. Best from 2020 through 2039. Drinking range: 2022 - 2040 Rating: 95 Bruce Sanderson, The Wine Spectator (Jan 2017)
Lovely aroma of pure dark cherry, with a touch of spice. Very inviting. Beautifully balanced between the scented cherry fruit and tannins that are compact but not at all intrusive even now. Relatively lightweight on the mid palate but persistent nevertheless. Drinking range: 2019 - 2029 Rating: 17 Jancis Robinson OBE MW - www.JancisRobinson.com (Jan 2016)
Consistently among the best sites in Faiveley’s mouth-watering array of vineyards, the most northerly Grand Cru in Gevrey has really delivered in 2014. Spicy, complex and savoury, with a blood, ferrous note, very fine tannins, some clove spice and impressive palate depth.
