Mazis-Chambertin Grand Cru Dominique Laurent 2001

The wine

Mazis-Chambertin is one of the nine grand crus produced in the commune of Gevrey-Chambertin. Ideally located next to the Clos-de-Bèze, below Ruchottes-Chambertin, it produces an extremely powerful wine (for a Burgundy); soft and complex, with a structure that facilitates graceful aging. After a few years, Mazis-Chambertin becomes characterised by complex aromas of spices, leather and red fruit.

About the Producer Dominique Laurent

Having acquired a real reputation with the wines from his trade, since 2006, with the help of his son, Dominique Laurent has also created a small producer-farming establishment from vineyards leased to a winemaker of Vosne-Romanée. He does not deal with vinification but élevage and bottling. Nevertheless, he supervises vinification. The father and son like to work grape musts that have not been destemmed and to mature their wines without sulphur. They use new barrels, the signature of the maison. Dominique Laurent's entire range of wines is characterised by a high degree of purity and to be accessible to all ages. This recipe has proved its worth to fans all over the world.
