A refined eau-de-vie from the Côte de Nuits, marrying finesse with aromatic complexity, from Distillerie Mazy.
The Fine de Bourgogne La Divine from Distillerie Mazy is the most refined and ambitious cuvée in the Fine range, a spirituous expression born from the distillation of fine lees from Premiers Crus of the Côte de Nuits, crafted by Julie Mazy with the same meticulous rigour and passion for detail that define her artisanal distillery, founded in 2016 at Marsannay-la-Côte. Protected by AOC status, La Divine is a journey into the very essence of the Burgundian vineyard, an eau-de-vie of wine possessed of an elegance, presence and refinement that fully justify its name.
Raw material and origin
Fine de Bourgogne stands as the noblest and rarest of Burgundian eaux-de-vie, born not from grape pomace but from the fine lees of wine, those precious sediments recovered during cellar racking. La Divine is crafted specifically from an exclusive blend of fine lees sourced from Premiers Crus of the Côte de Nuits, predominantly Pinot Noir with a touch of Chardonnay depending on the vintage, selected from partner domaines with whom Julie Mazy maintains bonds of trust and mutual exigence. These Premiers Cru lees make all the difference: they preserve the most delicate and complex aromas of the original wine, bestowing upon the Fine a finesse, aromatic presence and depth that no pomace can replicate. Production of Fine de Bourgogne remains naturally confidential, as strong demand for the wines themselves encourages vignerons to limit volumes released for distillation, making it an absolute rarity on the market.
Distillation and ageing
Distillation follows the artisanal methods that are the signature of Mazy, with constant attention paid to heart selection through tasting. Ageing, with a minimum duration of three years imposed by the AOC Fine de Bourgogne cahier des charges, and often extended beyond, takes place in carefully selected oak casks that give the eau-de-vie its topaz colour, woody complexity and silky texture. Each cuvée of La Divine comes with an ultra-detailed technical sheet, indicating the supplying domaines, the type of casks used and the exact proportions of grape varieties in the blend, a level of transparency and precision that speaks volumes about Julie Mazy's rigour and integrity in her work.
Tasting profile
The colour is topaz, bright and luminous, with the golden glints characteristic of well-conducted oak ageing. The nose shows immediate presence and refinement: notes of yellow fruits, greengage, peach, apricot, mingle with floral touches of dandelion and honeysuckle, lifted by soft spices like cinnamon and vanilla, a whisper of polished wood and delicate almond cream. The whole displays a rarity of elegance and delicacy for a spirit of such intensity. On the palate, the attack is fresh, lively and precise, characteristic of Fine de Bourgogne drawn from Pinot Noir of the Côte de Nuits. The material is refined, tensed and of lovely aromatic complexity, with a long, spiced, lightly woody finish that unfolds with grace and persistence. A spirituous expression both vibrant and distinguished, a finesse that recalls in certain respects the great vintage Armagnacs.
The distillery
Founded in 2016 by Julie Ay, wife of the son of Domaine Raspail-Ay in Gigondas, Distillerie Mazy emerged from a passion for Burgundian terroir and the discovery of an old liqueur recipe in the family library. A trained biochemist and former environmental protection officer in Gevrey-Chambertin, Julie Mazy has built step by step an artisanal distillery of remarkable exigence and precision, located at 33 rue de Mazy in Marsannay-la-Côte, on Burgundy's Route des Grands Crus. Her confidential range of Marcs, Fines, liqueurs and fruit eaux-de-vie is accompanied by technical sheets of total transparency, reflecting a winegrower-distiller for whom quality reigns absolutely over quantity. Distillation season runs from September through March, with visits available by appointment.
Tasting and pairings
La Divine is enjoyed neat, at room temperature, in a tulip glass that concentrates and gradually reveals the complexity of its aromas. A spirituous expression of contemplation above all, it is ideally savoured as a digestif, alone or with a square of intense dark chocolate. It can also be enjoyed as an apéritif blended with a splash of Dijon blackcurrant liqueur, the finecass, a cocktail steeped in Burgundian tradition. A Fine of character and rarity, intended for lovers of artisanal spirituous expression and terroir, who wish to explore Burgundy from an unexpected and precious angle.
