{"product_id":"domaine-tortochot-mazis-chambertin-2011","title":"Domaine Tortochot, Mazis Chambertin 2011","description":"\u003cp\u003eDomaine Tortochot’s 2011 Mazis-Chambertin is a powerful and distinguished Grand Cru Burgundy from one of Gevrey-Chambertin’s most revered vineyards. Combining generous red-fruit character with impressive structure, silky tannins and remarkable length, it reflects the depth and authority for which the appellation is famous. Gevrey-Chambertin has long been regarded as the gateway to the great wines of the Côte de Nuits—indeed, local historian Camille Rodier famously suggested that Gevrey-Chambertin alone could make great Burgundy possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe wine presents a deep ruby colour, with the developing complexity expected from a mature 2011 Burgundy. Its nose opens with aromas of red fruits, complemented by notes of liquorice and leather, adding savoury depth and nuance.\n\nOn the palate, it is powerful and well structured, with concentrated fruit, balanced freshness and excellent persistence. The tannins are firm yet remarkably silky and velvety through the finish, giving the wine both elegance and staying power. Now entering a rewarding phase of maturity, it can be enjoyed today with decanting and should continue to develop gracefully in a well-maintained cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMazis-Chambertin is a Grand Cru climat in Gevrey-Chambertin, an area renowned for producing Pinot Noir with both power and finesse. Domaine Tortochot’s traditional style aims to express this terroir through generous fruit, pronounced structure and lively acidity. The wine is matured for an average of 18 months in new oak barrels, allowing the oak to integrate with the wine’s fruit, tannin and natural depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServe at approximately 16–18°C after decanting for 30 minutes to two hours, depending on its condition and the size of the serving vessel. Its combination of power and refined tannins makes it an excellent partner for grilled meats, from simply prepared beef or lamb to more elaborate barbecue dishes. It also pairs beautifully with game, including both richly flavoured preparations and more delicate dishes featuring venison or wild poultry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDomaine Tortochot has been in the Tortochot family for four generations, with the family’s roots as vignerons in Gevrey-Chambertin reaching back to the 19th century, when Paul Tortochot worked as a modest grower on the Place des Marronniers. Today, the domaine is led by his great-granddaughter Chantal, a trained oenologist who represents a new generation of Burgundy winemakers. Under her direction, Domaine Tortochot combines continuity with a clear focus on expressing the character of Gevrey-Chambertin through traditional, age-worthy Pinot Noir.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine Tortochot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54493450469713,"sku":"VDZ-10570110468432-53331331219792","price":372.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0874\/0614\/9969\/files\/tort15020_2.png?v=1785852777","url":"https:\/\/bottlehero.com\/products\/domaine-tortochot-mazis-chambertin-2011","provider":"Bottle Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
