Mazis Chambertin, Domaine Dugat-Py 2010

Tasting Notes

**Note: from .25 ha parcel of 60+ year old vines planted at a density of 14,000/ha in Mazis-Bas - vinified with 100% stems**
This is even more intensely floral with knockout complexity to the distinctly sauvage character of the very ripe and cool black cherry, spiced plum and Gevrey style pungent earth aromas. This is a big and muscular wine of almost forbidding proportions that is shaped by an imposingly firm tannic spine on the marvelously concentrated and explosive finish that seems to go on and on. In fact even when the aftertaste seems to come to an end it suddenly returns and lasts again for an impressive period. In sum, this is flat out stunning and could rival the fantastic 2009 version. Note however that once again, plenty of patience will be required.

The 2010 Mazis-Chambertin is like candy. It boasts the silkiest, most elegant of tannins in support of expressive red fruit. Floral notes develop later, adding considerable lift and brightness. The finish is breathtaking for its seamless radiance. In 2010 the Mazis is all class and elegance. Dugat used 100% whole clusters on the Mazis. Anticipated maturity: 2020-2040.
