2012 Domaine Maume-Marchand-Tawse Mazis-Chambertin #257541740
Reviews 93 points Wine Advocate "...has a strong sea influence on the nose, infusing the dusky black fruit, later offering scents of cola and dried orange peel. It is mercurial in the glass - a grand cru difficult to pin down. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin. There is still a touch of new oak to be resolved, but there is good fruit concentration here with a lovely spiciness springing up on the finish that fans out. It is another great wine from Maume-Tawse, but it needs serious ageing. (NM)" 91-94 points Burghound "Here there is a much better wood versus fruit trade off that allows the black cherry liqueur, lavender and plum aromas to shine. The opulent and beautifully concentrated broad-shouldered flavors brim with dry extract on the intense and mineral-inflected finish that exhibits superb length where the wood resurfaces. This serious old school effort should be excellent in time though note that plenty of cellar time will be required. (AM)"
