Tasting note
The 2005 Mazis Chambertin signals its origins with aromas of black cherry, black raspberry, and licorice. Salted meat juices and saline, chalky mineral nuances impinge on a palate of enormous concentration of blazing, bright, ripe black fruits and, improbably, citrus. The finish displays grip without grit: “palate-staining” is too weak to describe its persistence, yet it is also persistently polished and refined.
Score: 95-97
