Le Mazel Cuvee Briand
Full of ripe plum and raisin notes, plenty of black pepper spice, bay leaf, and a subtle earthy tone. The palate is medium to full bodied, marked by refined tannins. Super rustic but approachable at the same time. No oak, bottled unfined and unfiltered. Enjoy it now or let it age in the cellar!
Like many other family estates, Le Mazel started out conventionally in 1919. For many years, it was mostly occupied supplying their every vintage of wine grape to the local co-operative, until the1980s when Gérald took over. After meeting the famous Beaujolais producer Marcel Lapierre, Gérald Oustric decided to focus on making authentic, terroir-expressive wines alongside his sister Jocelyne. Today, he is seen as one of the godfathers of the natural wine movement. His wines are notorious for embracing the annual variations that can occur without heavy manipulations or additions, and as such can express themselves completely differently from year to year.
