93 Robert Parker
The 2014 Grand-Mayne has a fragrant bouquet, perhaps more refined than in recent years with dried rose petals and incense fusing with the red berry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, crisp acidity and a gentle build towards a vivid, lightly spiced finish that maintains impressive delineation, perhaps less extracted and more precise than wines of the past. This is a superb Grand-Mayne that represents a subtle change in tack for the estate—one that this writer approves of. Tasted on three occasions and consistent every time.<br/>

Complex aromas of walnuts and plums, but there’s a pleasant citrus undertone that adds some energy to the bouquet. Lovely compact fruit. There are noticeable tannins but also a juicy character that makes the wine more approachable. It’s a red that will improve with a couple of years in bottle.
91 Wine Spectator
Fleshy, with a hint of extraction as the core shows dark fig and boysenberry pâte de fruit flavors, flecked with plum skin and mulling spice notes. A solid brambly tow on the finish stretches this out, while a lingering alder hint adds range. Best from 2018 through 2028. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 4,167 cases made

Château Grand Mayne
Situato a nord-ovest di Saint-Émilion, Château Grand Mayne è conosciuto per i suoi vini ricchi, aromatici e dall’intensa colorazione. A partire dagli anni ’30 del Novecento questa tenuta storica è di proprietà della famiglia Nony e oggi è gestita da Marie-Françoise Nony e dai suoi due figli, Jean Antoine e Damien. Sul limitare del famoso altopiano calcareo, Grand Mayne ospita 17 ettari di vigneto, impiantati a Merlot (80%), Cabernet Franc (15%) e Cabernet Sauvignon (5%). Dal 1973, Michel Rolland è consulente di questa tenuta Grand Cru Classé. I vini che ne risultano sono rossi corposi e di qualità che, grazie a un impiego sempre maggiore di botti di rovere nuove, hanno saputo sviluppare il carattere tipico dello Château, con sentori seducenti di Cassis e liquirizia.
