JCP Maltus, Vieux Château Mazerat Kosher 2021
" A new acquisition by proprietor Jonathan Maltus, who sold Grand Destieu in order to upgrade to this terroir, this 10-acre vineyard is planted with 65% Merlot and 35% Cabernet Franc. It is situated near several of the premier grand cru classes of St.-Émilion, including both Beausejours and Angelus ." Robert M. Parker, Jr. Vieux Château Mazerat is surrounded by Château Canon on three sides and by Château Angelus on the west; stuck in the middle of ‘Cru Classé’ territory and it faces Château Beausejour Duffau Lagarosse. The vineyard is a mixture of very old Cabernet Franc vines and Merlot on clay over limestone.
Savigny-lès-Beaune Premier Cru 'Les Vergelesses', Jane Eyre, (Magnum) 2023
The 2023 vintage at Jane Eyre Wines continues the tradition of producing refined and expressive wines with hallmark precision. Like 2022, 2023 was shaped by a warm growing season, but with the significant difference of ample rainfall when needed, keeping the soils well-nourished. The reds display lovely perfume, aromatics, and depth—qualities Jane prioritises in her Pinot Noirs—while the whites, after a slower start, have blossomed into vibrant, expressive examples of the vintage. "Aromatic and fruit-driven, this wine offers a nose of sweet strawberries and cassis. The palate is elegant, with balanced freshness, persistent tannins, and a long finish that highlights its finesse." Our note Jane’s use of whole-cluster fermentation increased in 2023, coupled with colder soaks at the start of fermentation. This approach has resulted in wines with richer colours and enhanced complexity. While the vintage is already showing expressive youthful charm, it also holds great potential for aging, making 2023 both approachable and collectible. The wines evolve quickly, offering fresh insights with each tasting.
