Vieux Chateau Mazerat other_regions_italy 6 ha after it was

6 ha after it was combined with the vines that formerly belonged to Michel Gros

indeed to the point that there is a mild exoticism to the very fresh

but that does not necessarily mean that it is the first of the vineyards to be harvested

a welcome sprinkling of cracked black pepper and an off-dry finish that feels long and persistent

Dark cocoa scents plus Morello cherry and blackberries

Vieux Chateau Mazerat other_regions_italy 6 ha after it wasThis has ample weight for the vintage, with enticing blackberry and boysenberry confiture flavors inlaid with cocoa powder and dark licorice notes. Theres a tangy iron accent on the finish, but this remains polished overall. The fruit should eventually fill in the available space. Best from 2018 through 2023. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 750 cases made. JM
