The Mazis really impressed in 2020. Its fresh and suave approach on the nose hits the palate with some restraint. Nothing is forced nor big nor bold. A charming, well measured glide across the palate of dark raspberries and pert strawberry flesh. There is a dusty mineral undertow - adding grip and a serious edge. The long finish has a whiff of menthol that excites and lifts once again. Very classy for the vintage. L&S (Nov 2021)

Ripe and packed with cherry and berry fruit, this red is creamy and resonant. Reveals spice, licorice, tobacco, meat and mineral elements as this plays out on the long, spicy finish. What this lacks in concentration it makes up for with finesse and length. Best from 2027 through 2045. Drinking range: 2027 - 2035 Rating: 94 Bruce Sanderson, The Wine Spectator (Mar 2023)
Exotic, dark and turbo-charged, this wine is wound up with sweet black plums and blackberries, anise and forest floor. It's definitely a wine for those that like bolder, chunkier Pinots, whether you drink it soon or wait a few decades. Speaking of which, Jérôme feels strongly that it is best to wait ten years before trying this wine. For the less patient, I implore you to wait at least six or seven years! Drinking range: 2026 - 2042 Rating: 97 Christy Canterbury MW - TimAtkin.com (Feb 2022)
The 2020 Mazis-Chambertin Grand Cru is deep and brooding, unfurling in the glass with aromas of blackberries, peonies, loamy soil and sweet soil tones. Full-bodied, ample and velvety, its concentrated core of fruit is framed by rich, powdery tannins and succulent acids. It's a worthy follow-up to the brilliant 2019. Rating: 93-95+ William Kelley, The Wine Advocate (Jan 2022)
