Domaine Armand Rousseau, Mazy-Chambertin Grand Cru, 2013
Mazy-Chambertin sits at the northern edge of the Gevrey Grand Cru hill, smaller and less celebrated than its neighbor Chambertin but capable of remarkable precision in the right hands. No hands are steadier than Rousseau's. The benchmark domaine of Gevrey-Chambertin (mentioned in the same breath as Roumier, DRC and Mugnier) farms one of the most coveted books of holdings in Burgundy, and the 2013 vintage is a textbook expression of its classical, terroir-forward house style. A cool, low-yielding year, 2013 produced wines of lifted acidity and tensile structure. Now thirteen years on, this Mazy is in its prime drinking window: kirsch and forest floor, fine-grained tannin, and the lingering Gevrey funk that signals a true Cote de Nuits Grand Cru opening up.
