Other Reviews....
Wilder and more brooding, the 2017 Mazy-Chambertin Grand Cru offers up notes of wild berries, dark chocolate, peonies and rich forest floor. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, layered and supple with fine-grained, chalky tannins and persuasive energy and length.

William Kelley - Wine Advocate (Jan 2019)

The 2017 Mazy-Chambertin Grand Cru has a beguiling, floral bouquet although, there is some reduction to contend with, that will be gone by the time of bottling. But one senses that this is more brooding. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannin, masculine and slightly ferrous, good density towards the finish, but this will require four or five years to really soften. Maybe the Charmes has more charm? This might be more intellectual however. Drink 2024-2040.

Neal Martin - Vinous (Nov 2018)

The most 'reliable' of the domaine's grands crus, according to Cyrielle Rousseau, this comes from a 55-year-old parcel and produces small berries (millerands) in the vineyard. It's always a highly perfumed wine, enhanced by a slight volatile lift in 2017, with scented oak, good focus, fine tannins and succulent wild strawberry fruit. Drink 2024-2029.
