96 points Neal Martin (Wine Advocate): "Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2014 tasting, Faiveley's 2014 Mazis-Chambertin Grand Cru has a very perfumed bouquet with pure dark plum, bergamot and pressed rose petal aromas that filter from the glass. Wonderful. The palate is very well balanced with a fine line of acidity, tensile from the start with hints of bay leaf and spice toward the structured and persistent finish. This is a very strong showing from Faiveley, a really marvelous Mazis-Chambertin for the long-haul. Tasted September 2017. Drink: 2020-2050. (Oct 2017)"
93-96 points and 'Don't miss!' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from both Mazis Haut and Bas where the two parcels total a remarkable 1.20 ha). A more expressive if less elegant nose features much more sauvage character on the dark berry fruit, humus, underbrush and smoked meat scents. The rich, full-bodied and distinctly powerful broad-shouldered flavors possess evident muscularity along with ample minerality that really comes to the fore on the gorgeously complex, intense and explosively persistent finale. This is a very serious wine and a classic Mazis and I emphatically underscore that this is going to need a very long time in a cool cellar to arrive at its peak. Drink: 2034+. (Jan 2016)"
95 points Bruce Sanderson (Wine Spectator): "[$353 list] Brilliant aromas and flavors of cherry, strawberry, currant and mineral highlight this complex red, which is intense and elegant, building to a kaleidoscopic finish. Structured and harmonious, with terrific aging potential. Best from 2020 through 2039. 50 cases imported. (4/30/17)"
95 points/'Cellar Selection,' Wine Enthusiast: "[$353 list] This wine is concentrated and dense. Big tannins flow up through this wine, giving shape to the ripe black fruit. In the back, acidity dominates bright red berries and the potential for a rich, generous future. The wine will age over many years. Drink from 2022. Alcohol 13.5%. (Aug 2016)"
95 points (17.5/20) La Revue du Vin de France: "Distinctive, Mazis-Chambertin has both a finesse of grain that makes it pleasant and a solidity on the finish that gives it a beautiful structure. Longer than broad, it delicately expresses its Pinot character. (Jan 2017)"
