A Gevrey-Chambertin Grand Cru with nearly twenty years in bottle, which is exactly the patience Faiveley says this wine asks for. Mazis-Chambertin is Gevrey's northernmost Grand Cru, an east-facing slope right up against Clos de Bèze. Its name comes from the little houses ("mazis") that once stood on the plot. Faiveley's vines here run across both the upper and lower parts of the vineyard, on shallow soils that are mostly Premeaux limestone with very little clay. The house says that depending on the year it can be delicate and fragrant or wilder and more masculine, and either way it's a wine for the cellar. Buy one young and you're in for a long wait, but this 2006 has already done the waiting for you. It's just the bottle we'd open for a holiday roast, and it deserves some time in the glass.

More about

Faiveley is an Iconic Domaine in the best sense of the term. They have both history and pedigree (almost 200 years and 7 generations old), but also innovation as current managers Erwan and Eve Faiveley look to the future. For years, they were considered one of the large, but high quality, negociants in Burgundy – companies that source grapes from third-party growers for wine production. But now they are a true domaine, with many prized holdings in Burgundy, farmed organically, that yield some of the region’s most sought-after wines.

Flatiron's Take

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Roast turkey with mushroom and chestnut stuffing; roast pheasant or guinea fowl; duck breast with cherry jus; coq au vin; wild mushroom risotto; a ripe Époisses or Comté to finish.

Tasting Profile

Expect the classic Gevrey-Chambertin Grand Cru profile: dark cherry and blackberry fruit with spice, earth and a savoury, meaty edge on a firm, structured frame. With bottle age, wines in this style typically soften toward forest floor, leather and dried violet, the tannins turning silky over fresh acidity and a long, dry, layered finish.
