Dugat-Py Mazis-Chambertin 2012 (750ML)

97-99 WA

Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate:
There are three barrels of the 2012 Mazis-Chambertin Grand Cru this year, which includes around 85% whole cluster fruit. Despite a touch of reduction, the floral nature of this grand cru shows through, violets and rose petals sprinkled over the intense dark berry fruit and minerals. The palate is very concentrated with intense black fruit. It offers a beguiling sense of symmetry and one of the most powerful finishes that you will find in this vintage. This is a true vin de garde Ò dont touch for 15 years, but it will be a behemoth to behold.

95-97pts Vinous:
Rose petals, violets, anise and sweet red cherries lift from the glass in Dugat-Py's 2012 Mazis-Chambertin. The contours are refined, silky and polished throughout. This is a fabulous showing from a wine that is vibrant, crystalline and utterly breathtaking. Although the Mazis is quite floral and intensely aromatic, it also has plenty of depth and mid-palate pliancy. -Antonio Galloni, January 2014
