Château MAZEYRES
Red
- 2023
- Pomerol
This beautiful 24-hectare estate has been run by Alain Moueix since 1992. He applies the same philosophy and methods as at Fonroque (Saint-Émilion): organic farming since 2015, biodynamic certification in 2018, search for freshness and elegance through controlled extractions... Mazeyres offers delicate and measured wines, without blush, with a great finesse of flavor that increases even more in recent vintages.
The 2023 vintage in the press:
Bettane et Desseauve (Guide 2027) : 91/100
Vinous (A. Galloni – March 2026): 90/100 “The 2023 Mazeyres is intriguing but also a bit eccentric because of the elevated presence of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, both of which add a strong savory/spiced imprint that is unusual for Pomerol. There's a lot to like in this distinctive 2023.”

The 2022 vintage in the press:
La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2027) : 93/100 “2022 will go down as a landmark year in the estate’s history. The bouquet offers a rare complexity, blending black fruits, citrus and dried herbs. The balance, characterised by richness, is brought under control by a varied and well-judged ageing process — in wood, vats and amphorae. The length and vibrancy of the fruit promise excellent ageing potential.”
La Revue du Vin de France (December 2025): 93/100 "Biodynamic farming and the quality of the vintage have produced a high-quality 2022. The fruit is brilliant, with a delicious richness. The balance on the palate is marked by a rare sapidity, making the whole delightfully flavourful. The subtle tannins promise twenty years of ageing potential."
Vinous (A. Galloni - January 2025): 92/100 "The 2022 Mazeyres is aromatic, bold and racy. Crushed flowers, sage, mint, spice, many of them in cooler spots within Pomerol, which was certainly a help in 2022. As a result, this retained terrific energy. Lifted floral and savory notes extend the clean, bracing finish."
Bettane + Desseauve (Guide 2026) : 92/100
En Magnum (September–October–November): 93/100 “The spices complement generous dark fruit in a complex and indulgent profile. Full-bodied, supple and well-balanced, the palate confirms this fine harmony.”
