A little steely and mineral with sour cherries and almost a raw meat character to the fruit. Some wild herbs and garrigues, too. Palate is ripe and almost a bit plush, with a fleshy core of dark fruits and a generous, fruit-expressive finish. Tannins are firm and small-grained.

The 2020 Mazeyres is a gorgeous wine from Alan Mouiex. Beautifully layered in the glass, the 2020 possesses tremendous density and character. There's plenty of depth, but this is an especially perfumed style, driven in large part by expansive Franc aromatics. The long, persistent finish is quite striking.

The 2020 Mazeyres opens in the glass with aromas of minty berries, plums, petals and spices. Medium to full-bodied, rich and fleshy, it's lively and sapid, with velvety tannins and a charming, perfumed profile. Incorporating a large percentage of Cabernet Franc and defined by sandy soils, this Pomerol estate is farmed organically and biodynamically.
