Mazis Chambertin Joseph Roty 2009 (750ml)

93 Points, Stephen Tanzer, Vinous: "Good full red. Wild, scented nose offers currant, cherry, dried rose and game. Juicy, brisk and delineated, showing a distinctly imploded quality to the red raspberry, mocha and floral flavors. Firmly tannic but not hard, finishing with superb rising length and lovely perfume. Dense, concentrated and in need of patience." 4/12

93 Points, Allen Meadows, Burghound: "Despite the proximity to the Fontenys, this is notably more sauvage in character with wild red berry fruit, warm earth and the same intense minerality that also characterizes the dense and powerful flavors that brim with dry extract on the firmly structured and impressively persistent finish. I particularly like the underlying sense of balance and harmony and this should age well. There is some wood toast present but it's reasonably subtle."

95+ Points, John Gilman, View From the Cellar: "The Mazis Chambertin delivers a stunning nose of cassis, black cherries, grilled meat, woodsmoke, a profound base of black minerality, mustard seed and spicy new wood. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and magical, with a rock solid core of fruit, superb purity and focus, ripe, well-integrated tannins and stunning length and grip on the youthful and perfectly balanced finish. Great juice." 6/12
