Mambourg 2022 Marcel Deiss

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (99)

The 2022 Grand Cru Mambourg displays an intense, dark yellow color and opens with a super intense and concentrated yet elegant and mineral bouquet of ripe yellow fruits and dark citrus fruits, crushed salts, limestone rocks and a hint of mocha beans and iodine notes. Full-bodied, round and very rich yet also very elegant and refined on the palate, this is a very generous, powerful and concentrated yet also stimulating saline and finely tannic Mambourg with a long, warm and super intense, saline and crunchy finish. In this warm vintage, the Mambourg comes across like a Hermitage and should be exciting to follow through the vintage river for several years. 14% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in November 2024.

Vinous (96)

The 2022 Mambourg Grand Cru is a field blend of Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Noir and Auxerrois planted on this warm site. A touch of smoked hay sets the tone on the nose. The palate is far more fluid and slender than the nose would suggest. It is smooth, with a waxy, smoky, pleasant bitterness, always wrapped in lovely smokiness but with so much cool direction.
