Mazis Chambertin
Grand Cru
In the vines
This Grand Cru comes from two parcels, “Mazis Haut” and “Mazis Bas”, located north of Clos de Bèze, whose origins date back to the early 14th century.
Both parcels are planted with old vines. Soils and subsoils vary from one sector to another.
This climat benefits from soils with low silt content, enriched by elements originating from the edge of the Combe Lavaux.
Viticulture
Guyot pruning and the Royat Cordon training systems, mechanical ploughing, and the use of 100% organic fertilizers.
We use certified organic products and maximise manual work, including bud removal, shoot trimming, leaf removal, and green harvesting.
Soil management is carried out in a reasonable manner, with preventive vineyard practices aimed at reducing sulfur and copper treatments in the parcels. The parcel is currently under organic conversion (AB).
Harvest
Hand-harvested in 20 kg crates, with sorting carried out directly in the vineyard.
In the glass
Ripe cherries with spicy and smoky notes, firm yet silky tannins with good structure, liquorice notes and a long finish.
Vinification
Selection of juice from the estate’s cuvée, followed by dedicated ageing to produce a highly refined wine, with production limited to one to two barrels per vintage.
