April 20, 2024 - Armand Rousseau Dinner: Pronounced nose intensity with notes of flora, violet, red cherry, strawberry, graphite. Medium+ acidity and medium tannin. Long finish. Aeration in the bottle around 4 hours.
April 12, 2024 - A rather harsh rating, but this really fail to deliver what I was legitimacy hoping for. An inelegant and greenish pinot with slightly bitter tanins, medium bodied, and feeling a bit disjointed. I usually love Rousseau, I have a great souvenir of a 2006 Mazy (so-so vintage too), but this was not drinking well. I tasted the wine by myself over two days (pregnant wifey) and it did not get any better on day 2. Wine came directly from the domaine a short while ago.
April 2, 2022 - Mon meilleur Mazy à date. Fin , velouté et soyeux, un vin d’une texture exceptionnelle. Les arômes de fruits rouges (cassis) déclinent sur cette finesse, changeant en cours de soirée, signe de sa complexité. Le vin se termine sur un decrescendo d’une longueur digne d’un grand cru. Cette cuvée est souvent boudée mais sur 2014, il s’agirait d’une erreur de détourner le regard…
July 19, 2020 - Subtle but ever present nose of brambly red fruit, spice and a mineral note. Light in weight but great flavors of mineral and spice. Nice balance. Great material and will age well. Not as forward as the 2013.
November 21, 2019 - Acker 2019/11 (Valcluse): Attractive, bitter tannin with stem. 92
September 1, 2019 - Meilleur le 1er soir après une heure d'ouverture sans épaulage, se referme un peu le 2e soir. Encore très jeune, sur les épices, avec des notes de verdure qui suggère de la vendange entière. Seulement trop tôt pour qu'il déploie pleinement ses ailes sur ce millésime assez classique je crois.
May 10, 2019 - Probably my best experience with Rousseau next to Ruchottes 2010. Nice cool nose of strawberry and cherry although on the darker side. Overall I rate Mazy 2014 a tick over 2013, but I found the nose slightly better on the 2013. Although I have to admit, given the price and reputation of Rousseau I have still not been completely floored by any of these wine (including Clos de Beze 2012) like I am routinely with the wines of Comte Liger Belair (any cuvee) and Roumier Cras.
May 5, 2019 - Her er vi i den sexy enden av skalaen.👌
Deilig saftig frukt på smak.
Leken og elegant med pen konsentrasjon.
Meget fresh.
Slank denne også.
Rent og deilig.
Ung, men ingen skam å poppe en.
Lang finish med finkornede tanniner. 92-93p
April 3, 2019 - GMs Mid-Week: Blind. Raspberry, cherry, earth, roses. Lighter bodied - composed and savoury with a touch of red fruit sweetness. Excellent balance.
November 4, 2018 - Great night. Etienne Sauzet Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru Le Perrières 2015: young and slightly lower than expected. However, this is a great producer. Armand Rousseau Mazy Chambertin 2014: powerful and intense. Great. Armand Rousseau Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos St Jacques 2014: spectacular.
