Domaine Heresztyn-Mazzini, Gevrey-Chambertin, Vieilles Vignes 2021

Description

The creation of the Heresztyn-Mazzini vineyard marks the beginning of a new adventure for Florence, from Burgundy, and Simon, from Champagne. After ten years spent working on the family vineyard in Gevrey-Chambertin, the couple decided to start their own venture.
The estate currently covers 5.5 hectares spread across the villages of Gevrey-Chambertin, Morey-Saint-Denis, and Chambolle-Musigny. 2012 saw the first vintage from Heresztyn-Mazzini, an estate specialising in fine Burgundy red wines. At the Domaine Heresztyn-Mazzini, every action is deliberate and thoroughly researched, from the vine to the cellar. Florence and Simon respect the environment and the natural world, and use environmentally friendly pest control. They spend a lot of time out amongst the vines, carefully monitoring their growth.

Gevrey-Chambertin, Vieilles Vignes is an excellent, refined wine made using old vines. Complex and highly elegant on the palate, it has notes of red fruits and spices. A structured wine with a robust aspect.
