Philippe Charlopin-Parizot, Mazis Chambertin Vintage:2020 Cassis and chocolate come together(from Mazis Hauts). This arguably possesses the most complex nose in the range with its intensely floral aromas of various dark berries, earth, sauvage and an interesting hint of tangerine peel. The broad shouldered, powerful and concentrated flavors are saline to the point of being almost salty before culminating in a wonderfully long, balanced and compact finale. This is a wine to buy and forget you own for at least a decade. In a word, excellent.
