EnquiryTasting Notes
Vinous 93
The 2008 Mazoyères-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes Grand Cru has an attractive nose with plenty of red berry fruit, leather, dessicated orange peel and light minty aromas. There is a little more fruit concentration here compared to its peers. The palate is medium-bodied with slight hard tannins on the entry, but these gradually soften. Quite spicy at first, I admire the cohesion here and there is fine purity. Christophe Perrot-Minot told me that he did a lot of sorting in this vintage and it shows. [Neal Martin, 16/12/2021]

Robert Parker 94
Cedar, resin, licorice, cardamom, blackberry, and plum paste in the nose of Perrot-Minot’s 2008 Mazoyeres-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes migrate onto a palpably extract- and tannin-rich (albeit fine-grained) palate, accompanied by deep richness of beef stock. The juicy, tart yet ripe fresh fruit edge keeps this from becoming austere, as medicinal herbal extractions, iodine, peat, and crushed stone saturate the palate and leave your mouth a quiver but practically exhausted. This take-no-prisoners expression of its site should be at least a 15-20 year keeper. Christophe Perrot-Minot pursued to extremes in 2008 the fanatic selectivity on which he prides himself, though he would have been happy had that not been necessary. He claims this triage was almost entirely for the removal of under-ripe, not of botrytis-infected, berries. (And yields from these ” as the labels remind us ” universally old vines are always extremely low even before fruit hits the estate’s two sorting tables.) The concentrated, lavishly ripe but densely-structured style associated with this domaine is tempered by the relatively low alcohol (wines finished ” after light chaptalization ” in the upper 12s or low 13s) and efficacious acidity of the 2008 vintage, as well as by a relatively gentle extraction that he reports was forced on him by fruit whose virtues could easily have been spoiled by pigeage. Given the way these wines turned out, I, for one, am very glad no attempt was made to punch the musts into further extractive submission! Perrot-Minot opines that many 2008s were permanently stunted by excess sulfuring ” which exacerbated the lateness of malo-lactic transformation ” and by too little time between the end of malo and bottling, ending up “square†(he used the English word) and “lacking in fat. There was also a danger,†he acknowledged, “that one could end up with wines too concentrated, or that lack purity of aroma and don’t express their terroir.†And in another response to the inherent intensity but also limitations of the fruit, new wood this year was held to a maximum of 40%. Most of the 2008s had been bottled recently when I tasted them in April, but some as early as January. (For details on many of the Perrot-Minot vineyard sites and old vines, consult my reports in issues 170 and 186. I did not have time, unfortunately, to taste any of the 2007s from this estate except a very early stage.) Importer: Martine’s Wines, Novato, CA; tel. (415) 883-0400 [29/06/2010]
