Domaine Lucien le Moine Mazis Chambertin Grand Cru 2005

Lucien le Moine Mazis-Chambertin Grand Cru 2005 is a striking expression of one of Burgundy’s most revered vineyards, crafted in tiny quantities with the uncompromising precision that has made Lucien le Moine a cult name among collectors. Sourced from Grand Cru fruit and raised with a focus on purity, texture, and site expression, it captures both the power of Mazis-Chambertin and the meticulous, hands-on style of Rotem and Mounir Saouma.

Tasting Notes
Deeply colored and intensely perfumed, this wine opens with aromas of black cherry, black raspberry, and licorice, layered with salted meat juices, saline accents, and chalky mineral tones. On the palate it is concentrated and vivid, delivering ripe black fruit, a surprising citrus lift, and a long, refined finish that shows impressive grip without harshness. The 2005 vintage has the structure and depth to age beautifully, and this Grand Cru still has the concentration to evolve for many more years. Over time, the fruit should gain more earth, spice, and savory complexity while the texture becomes even more seamless.

Production
Mazis-Chambertin lies in the heart of Gevrey-Chambertin, where gravelly and limestone-rich soils help shape Pinot Noir with power, structure, and mineral drive. Lucien le Moine works with a strict selection of top Burgundy parcels, harvesting by hand and vinifying in its Beaune cellar with an emphasis on minimal intervention. The wines are aged on the lees in new French oak, bottled unfiltered, and handled entirely by hand to preserve tension, depth, and terroir character.

Food & Serving
This is a superb match for rich dishes such as roast duck, beef tenderloin, venison, braised short ribs, or game birds with earthy sauces. Serve at around 16–18°C, and if possible decant gently 1–2 hours before serving to allow the wine to खुल?

Producer
Lucien le Moine was founded in 1999 by Rotem and Mounir Saouma, who built the domaine around an exacting selection of premier and grand cru Burgundy wines from trusted growers. The couple quickly earned a reputation for uncompromising quality, innovative élevage, and very limited production, making the estate one of the most sought-after names in Burgundy. Their work has been widely praised by critics and collectors alike, especially for its ability to combine intensity, precision, and sense of place.
