2012 Vieux Château Mazerat, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru

2012 Vieux Château Mazerat, Saint-Emilion Grand Cru

Mulberry, black cherry, kirsch, lavender, spring flower and crushed chalk-like notes emerge from this well-endowed, medium to full-bodied, rich, fragrant wine that displays both nobility and raciness. The tannins are apparent in this big, impressively endowed 2012. It should drink well for 15-20 years.

There is the famed Vieux Chateau Certan (known by wine geeks as VCC) and now there is VCM from Jonathan Malthus. Surrounded on three sides by the famous Chateau Canon and near to both Angelus and Beausejour-Duffau, Vieux Chateau Mazerat tends to be about two-thirds Merlot and one-third Cabernet Franc (from vines planted in 1947).
(Robert Parker Score - 92-94 Points)
