The 2014 Mazoyères Chambertin Grand Cru, which comes from same-aged vines just 60 meters away from the Charmes-Chambertin, has a very intense, well defined bouquet: blackberry and raspberry coulis, fine mineralité coming through. I find the new oak less imposing here. The 90% whole bunch fruit works well on the palate; the wine is medium-bodied with firm, slightly abrasive tannins that should soften during the élevage and requisite bottle age. Good density here with plenty of freshness on the finish, this is a wine for long-term keeping.
Sinewy, mineral rather than fruity nose. High toned. Earthy. Savoury, almost sandy textured. No obvious sweetness. Needs lots of time. Very serious. Long.?
