Vintage Character The 2021 Mazis-Chambertin Grand Cru from Domaine Faiveley is a compelling expression of one of Gevrey-Chambertin’s most revered terroirs. The 2021 vintage in Burgundy was shaped by a challenging growing season, with significant spring frosts and a cool, mild summer, resulting in wines celebrated for their precision, freshness, and aromatic vibrancy.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing Awarded 94 points by Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, this Grand Cru reveals a captivating bouquet of wild red berries, black cherry, violets, and earthy nuances, layered with subtle spice and forest floor notes. On the palate, it is both refined and powerful, offering flavors of redcurrant, cranberry, and sous-bois, supported by fine-grained tannins and a mineral-driven backbone. The finish is long and elegant, echoing savory undertones and a hint of smokiness. Its purity and taut structure make it an ideal match for dishes such as roast duck with cherry sauce, herb-crusted lamb, or classic Comté cheese.
