"An impressively ripe nose that does not display any notes of surmaturité features mostly wild dark berry fruit aromas and ample pungent earth notes that merge seamlessly into rich, full and sweet flavors that possess excellent volume and real drive on the strikingly long finish. This is just a touch woody but there’s a good chance that this will fully integrate in time as this is a serious, concentrated and structured old school burg." (Jan 2008)
Guide Revue des Vins de France 2008: 16/20
"Les Lavaux comme les Champeaux sont denses et compacts, relativement extraits et méritent de se reposer en cave, tout comme les Charmes Chambertin. Le soyeux se trouve en revanche dans le beau Mazis Chambertin qui est le meilleur vin de la cave."

A very pungent nose speaks only of reduction and wood. Otherwise the succulent but more voluminous middle weight plus flavors exude a subtle minerality before concluding in solidly powerful

The beautifully layered nose offers another small step up in elegance and a large step up in aromatic complexity and spiciness to the essence of red pinot fruit and intense floral influence
