2013 Bernard Dugat-Py Mazis Chambertin Grand Cru, Burgundy

This is aromatically reticent to the point of being all but mute though determined swirling finally reveals an abundance of floral, earth, spice and wet stone nuances on the dark berry fruit liqueur scents. I love the mouth feel of the mineral-driven, powerful and broad-shouldered flavors that possess superb mid-palate concentration along with the same almost painful intensity of the Mazoyères on the sappy and massively long finale. As it usually is this is a big, even massive wine yet the balance is impeccable. Note well however that this is old school and will need every bit of 20 years to divulge its full, and considerable, potential.
