  Don & The Shrimpheads (Craig & Nita's Place): Dark red plus color with a 7mm transition to clear. PNP, drank a glass over 90 minutes. Captivating leather flows from the nose, saddle, funk, cherry, Asian spices, damp earth and fine ground pencil. The palate shows cool cherry notes, red currants, cherry cough drops, leather, funk and spice with a medium full bodied frame. Really nice, 94+pts.

  Local Minneapolis Chef extraordinaire Don Saunders cooked for 8 Shrimpheads at my place. We highly recommend hiring Don to cook for in home events! The 2010 vintage shows its outstanding balance again here! I had expected my 08 Mugneret Gibourg Ruchottes to win the flt but it fell short of this btl tonight! 08, while a fun vintage from one Burgundy's top producers couldn't quite keep pace w/ this '10 Mazis. Fabulous aromas of roses & forest floor! Exceedingly fresh & vibrant; raspberry, mineral, spice & emerging sous bois on an authoritative, yet velvety palate. This was nothing short of impressive! Happy to own one myself that I need to share with Lonny 3-10yrs down the road. A great Burg moment and my WOTN! 95+ Thanks Lonny!

  From mag, exactly as Mr(?) Dcwino put down below, absolutely spot on. Nose is not the typical mineral driven Chambertin, there is more fruits. Power without weight, a big surprise drom my previous experience with this producer. Bravo !!

  Expressive youthful nose displaying perfectly ripe red and black fruit, raspberry, blackberry, blackberry jelly, a slightly hint of sous bois starting to emerge, rose, sweet spices and limestone mineral. Excellent concentration, very finely layered generous black and red fruit, silky and weightless, perfect amount of acidity, strong mineral, and a long perfectly ripe black fruit driven finish with a hint of rose at the end. For me, the texture is what separates the great Grand crus and this is a very good example. There is no harsh tannins of the pre 2006 Faiveley wines. This will develop beautifully for the next two decades. This represents a great buy at auction.
