The 2019 Grand Cru Mambourg offers a deep and pure bouquet with ripe stone fruit aromas intertwined with iodine and notes of crushed limestone and orange blossoms. Full-bodied, intense and bitter on the palate, this is a surprisingly matured Mambourg that shows bitters rather than complexity and rich texture. It is an impressive, pure, refined and salty wine with fine tannins, but I wonder if the best characteristics—the richness and ripeness—have not been sacrificed for the purity, but this might be a question of personal style. I personally would have expected more richness here. 14.5% alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in May 2022.
