Vieux Château Mazerat St Emilion Grand Cru 2019

This opens with tons of liqourice and taut black fruits. Still as knitted down as it was En Primeur, with floral notes and a core of saline minerality, this will need a good seven to eight years in bottle before it really starts to open up, but it is clearly an exceptional, carefully crafted wine that will reward patience. 80% new oak.
