The Chateau Mazeyres 2016 is a rather aerial wine with a lovely purple color. On the nose, it develops floral (violet, lilac) and fruity aromas. On the palate, it is supple and full-bodied, offering flavors of alcoholic-soaked black fruit (blackcurrant, blueberry) mixed with more oaky, spicy and empyreumatic notes. The Chateau Mazeyres 2016 reveals quite a lovely, lengthy finish.
Attention: this comment may be brought into question as the wine evolves over time.
The medium garnet-purple colored 2016 Mazeyres gives red plums, kirsch and black raspberries with earthy undertones and touches of stewed tea and tobacco. The palate is medium-bodied with a chewy frame and earthy finish.
