| Description (by producer & GT in English only) : | | Château Mazeyres is a delicate, elegant wine with a beautiful garnet-red hue, a bouquet comprised of a lovely range of aromas with scents of violet and lilac, mingled with a hint of macerated berries. The second taste is pleasantly smooth giving fullness with powerful, warm flavours of macerated black fruit (blackcurrant, bilberry), peppery woodiness, incense, juniper berry and vanilla-scented wood. The finish is long and elegant.

Tasting note: A very deep red hue, this Château Mazeyres 2009 develops a powerful nose as soon as it is open. A rapid expression of violet leads us towards aromas of black fruit with a predominant scent of violet. It reveals an extremely discreet touch of woodiness, to conclude for this first marvellous impression. It is rich and full on the first taste and continues with a precise, elegant texture of tannin. Fruity flavours can be perceived again, before an absolutely long finish giving a few hints of coffee. Some will savour this wine after 5 years of ageing, but it will reach its peak after 10 years.
