The Joseph Roty Mazy-Chambertin Rouge Grand Cru 2021 is a magnificent expression of one of Burgundy’s most historic Grand Cru vineyards. Mazy-Chambertin, located in the northernmost part of Gevrey-Chambertin, is renowned for producing wines of exceptional power, depth, and complexity. The Roty family, with over a century of winemaking expertise, applies their meticulous viticultural practices and traditional winemaking techniques to this cuvée, ensuring that the unique characteristics of this storied terroir are beautifully expressed. The 2021 vintage, defined by cooler conditions, yielded wines of vibrant acidity, purity, and finesse, perfectly suited to showcase the elegance of Mazy-Chambertin.
On the nose, this wine reveals an intricate bouquet of black cherries, wild blackberries, and ripe plums, complemented by floral notes of violets and a touch of rose petal. Subtle layers of spice, earth, and a hint of smoked meat add complexity and intrigue. On the palate, it is full-bodied and structured, with finely grained tannins and a lively acidity that provides freshness and balance. A pronounced mineral backbone underscores its pedigree, leading to a long, powerful finish with echoes of dark fruit, spice, and stony minerality.
This wine pairs exquisitely with dishes such as roasted venison, duck breast with a berry reduction, or braised short ribs. While approachable with decanting in its youth, the Joseph Roty Mazy-Chambertin Rouge Grand Cru 2021 will reward extended cellaring over 15–20 years, revealing even greater complexity and refinement. It is a testament to the Roty family’s dedication to preserving Burgundy’s rich heritage and crafting wines of remarkable depth and longevity.
