Frédéric Esmonin Mazis-Chambertin 2002 is a Grand Cru Pinot Noir from a cooler, late-ripening vintage. The vineyard is situated on thin limestone soils, which impart a wild and savoury character to the fruit. Esmonin utilises a style that emphasises clarity and finesse, with the 2002 release benefiting from a patient ageing process in French oak. This wine has developed into a complex array of red fruits, rose petals and damp earth. The palate is medium-bodied and lacy, with the high-toned acidity of the vintage providing a long, energetic finish.
