Arnaud Mortet’s Mazoyères-Chambertin Grand Cru 2022 is a 100% Pinot Noir from the Côte de Nuits, drawn from an appellation whose vineyard area is shared with—and can legally be sold as—Charmes-Chambertin. In the U.S. it is imported by Skurnik. The wine sits firmly in Grand Cru territory and, on the evidence of multiple strong reviews, looks like one of the domaine’s standout bottlings in the vintage.

The most emphatic praise comes from Vinous, which rated it an excellent 97 (95–97) and highlights both its detail and drive: “supremely well-focused and tensile,” with “a much more floral bouquet than the Charmes-Chambertin,” and “veins of blue fruit running through the red cherries and crushed strawberries” (Vinous). Vinous also reports the technical approach: “50% whole bunches and 30% new oak.”

Burghound also delivers an excellent review at 95 (92–95), calling the aromatics “restrained and ultra-fresh,” moving through “cherry, plum, red currant, earth and subtle sauvage nuances,” and noting “evident minerality” and a “decidedly serious finale” (Burghound). That seriousness reads as structure rather than heaviness, with a “caressing mouthfeel” framing the fruit.

Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, at 94 (92–94), emphasizes generosity matched to shape: “medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy,” yet “suave but structured,” with “plums, cherries, spices and peony” (Wine Advocate). The note also suggests this cuvée has gained in stature as “his work in the vineyards is paying off” (Wine Advocate).

Jasper Morris (96; 94–96) describes a more reserved profile—“somewhat sterner than the Charmes, with a drier finish”—while still concluding with persistence, a “long finish on cherry and dark raspberry fruit” (Inside Burgundy). Overall, the critical consensus points to a floral, dark-tinged Mazoyères with serious length, fine tannins, and the kind of balance that should reward cellaring.
