94 Robert Parker
Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Grand Mayne features fragrant kirsch, redcurrant jelly and black plums scents with touches of garrigue, mossy bark and Sichuan pepper. Full-bodied, rich and densely laden with vibrant red and black fruits, it has a plush frame and very long, earth-laced finish.

The dusty edge that this sports from the beginning lingers throughout, while the core of plum, anise and blackberry meanders through. It’s ripe but lacks some energy.—J.M.

Château Grand Mayne
Situated to the north-west of Saint-Émilion, Château Grand Mayne is known for its deeply-colored, rich, aromatic wines. Since the 1930s this historic estate has been owned and managed by the Nony family, today, Marie-Françoise Nony and her two sons, Jean Antoine and Damien are at helm. Situated on the edge of the famed limestone plateau, Grand Mayne is home to 17 hectares of vineyards, planted to Merlot (80%), Cabernet Franc (15%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (5%). Michel Rolland has been a consultant for this Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé property since 1973. The resulting wines are quality, full-bodied reds, and with the increased use of new oak they have developed a classic Mayne character, displaying lush flavors of cassis and liquorice.
