Domaine Dugat-Py Mazoyères-Chambertin Grand Cru 2023

Decanter : 97 Points

(11/11/2024) Loïc Dugat-Py continues to work on his version of Mazoyères, moving away from the massive, tannic style of previous vintages to something with much more precision and depth. The 2023 features charming blackberry fruit with a bit of bramble and earth – true complexity in an approachable format. The texture is supple yet still dense, and the length is truly impressive. The grapes are from a quarter-hectare parcel near the Aux Charmes lieu-dit; 90% are fermented as whole clusters, and the wine is currently ageing in cask (30% new). Drinking Window: 2030 - 2070.

Wine Advocate : 95-97 Points

(1/30/2025) The 2023 Mazoyères-Chambertin Grand Cru continues this cuvée's progression toward greater sensuality and expressiveness. Bursting from the glass with aromas of dark berries and plums mingled with potpourri and spices, it's full-bodied, suave and multidimensional, with a layered, creamy core of fruit, polished tannins and a long, perfumed finish. In the past, the Mazoyères could be something of an inky monster; but today, while it's deeper-pitched than the Charmes, it feels as if it has more to say and less to prove .
