Bill Nanson Burgundy Report: "6 parcels – 3 high and 3 low… 0.80 ha. Here it’s 90%new oak – none of the others use so much… There’s a faint barrel spice but less than most of the other wines – ‘yes we could probably get away with 100% new oak – we like to keep a few older barrels – but yes, Mazis eats the oak very easily…’ The largest scale but another wine that tempers its concentration with fine fluidity to the flavour – there’s no extra richness but there’s clearly extra flavour depth in the middle and finish of this wine – the finish wide, faintly drying with tannin but almost grainless – and only very, very slowly fading – that’s a simply excellent grand cru wine."(01/2024)
