Vinous, December 2020

(95-97 points) The 2019 Mazoyères-Chambertin Grand Cru has a little more intensity than the Charmes-Chambertin, damp undergrowth, moss, light leafy aromas tincturing the mainly red fruit and developing more and more...

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy, November 2020

(93-95 points) Medium deep crimson purple. There is significant weight of fruit here and it stands up a bit further than the Charmes, though again it is a pretty weighty beast, with plenty of power. However, the fruit...

The 2019 Domaine Taupenot-Merme Mazoyeres Chambertin is a Pinot Noir from the Gevrey Chambertin appellation, specifically the Mazoyeres Chambertin sub-appellation in Burgundy, France. This red wine, produced by Domaine Taupenot-Merme, is notable for its complex and earthy profile, as well as its potential for aging.

Vinous reviewer Neal Martin gave this wine a stellar score, ranging from 95 to 97 points. He noted its "damp undergrowth, moss, light leafy aromas tincturing the mainly red fruit," which develop into more earthiness with aeration. Martin described the wine as medium-bodied, with "supple tannins and a fine bead of acidity," adding that it has a "taut and fresh" character with a notably saline finish. He concluded that it is "destined to be a wonderful Mazoyères-Chambertin for sure," calling it the "Best in show chez Taupenot-Merme."

Jasper Morris from Inside Burgundy also praised the wine, scoring it between 93 and 95 points. Morris noted its "medium deep crimson purple" color and remarked on the significant weight of the fruit. He stated that it stands up better than the Charmes, describing it as a "pretty weighty beast, with plenty of power." However, he also highlighted the wine's balance, pointing out that "the fruit fills the middle a little better, and retains greater freshness to finish," culminating in a "long succulent finish."

Wine Spectator's reviewer, B.S., awarded the wine 94 points and described it as "harmonious." The review highlighted the wine's "steeped cherry, strawberry, rose, sandalwood and oak aromas and flavors." Despite its firm underlying tannins, which add "a little grain to the supple texture," the wine ends with "echoes of spices." Wine Spectator suggests that this wine "needs time" and recommends enjoying it between 2026 and 2045.

Overall, the 2019 Domaine Taupenot-Merme Mazoyeres Chambertin is a well-regarded Pinot Noir with a complex flavor profile, strong aging potential, and excellent reviews from multiple professional sources.
