Critics Scores
Wine Enthusiast
Big, ripe and fruity, it combines a rich character along with the firmest tannins and dense structure. Acidity adds a touch of freshness, while the structure and full fruit are concentrated and still young. Give this solid, dark wine at least until 2020. (RV)
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The Mazis-Chambertin 2011 from Faiveley has an exquisite bouquet that is initially understated, but opens with little encouragement to offer brambly red fruit, wild strawberry and red cherries, light mineral notes in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with sensual, lithe and ripe tannins, well-judged acidity and quite a dense, sour cherry finish that is very long in the mouth. This is sophisticated and intellectual – a great Mazis-Chambertin. Drink from 2017-2038 (NM)
Burghound
A discreet hint of wood allows the slightly riper and definitely more sauvage aromas of earth, humus, dark berries and soft spice notes to shine. There is excellent power to the robust and broad-shouldered flavors that also brim with structure-buffering dry extract that coats the palate on the mineral-driven, punchy and seriously persistent finish. This is not quite as austere as the Latricières though note that here too plenty of patience will be required. (92-95)
Stephen Tanzer
Good medium red. Knockout perfume combines cherry, lavender, sandalwood, pepper and earth, plus a whiff of game. Silky on entry, then firm in the middle, with plenty of solid tannins to give support to the strawberry and floral flavors. Quite dry and classic, finishing with dusty tannins, a touch of smoky, spicy oak and lovely lingering perfume. Will ultimately merit an even higher score if time in bottle brings more texture.
