Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Les Champonnets, Domaine Heresztyn-Mazzini 2021
Delicious gorgeous purple. 100% whole bunch but smothered by the fruit. A balanced headiness if you like, and beautifully attractive. The stems add a little structure, almost some muscle to the back, which I think is valuable in these richer years.
About the producer:
Florence Heresztyn and her Champenois husband Simon Mazzini lead domaine Heresztyn-Mazzini, one of the most progressive, terroir-true of all Gevrey-Chambertin growers. A relative newcomer in Burgundian terms, the estate has delighted the Mr.Wheeler tasting team across numerous vintages, with 2021 the latest to enthral and excite. Most of the estate’s wines are made along biodynamic principles, with partial whole-bunch fermentation which has once again produced wines of notable perfume, richness, texture and depth of fruit. The generosity but equally, tight-lipped restraint and crunch of their Gevrey Chambertin cuvées is utterly beguiling and from the estates’ Morey St Denis and Grand Cru Clos St Denis parcels can be found wines the equal of any grower in the region. Simply, these are wines you are certain to fall in love with and we cannot recommend them highly enough.
