James Suckling
"Floral, earthy, smoky, and racy, this wine exudes class and charm with its layers of medium-bodied red berries that are sweet, fresh, pure, silky, vibrant, and mineral. Refined with length and complexity, it is truly good now and will only improve with age. It is an undisputed candidate for the best vintage Grand Mayne ever produced!"

Winery rated 2 stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more consistent and uniform than the previous one)
About the estate:
Spanning 17 hectares, this grand cru classé located on the west coast of the Saint-Emilion plateau is managed by the Nony family. Under the leadership of Jean-Antoine Nony, the estate has made significant progress and seems to have found its stride in producing great wines on this first-rate terroir. The 2018 and 2020 vintages confirm this new cycle. Bravo.
Guide Hachette des vins
Rated estate (2022 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer's wines are regularly recognized by the guide)
About the estate:
This vineyard, which has been in the Nony family since 1934, has retained its old name ("grand domaine" in Old French): in the 19th century, with nearly 300 hectares, it was the largest estate in Saint-Émilion. Today, the vines cover 17 hectares of gentle slopes to the west of the plateau.

Rated estate (2022 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing good-quality wines; you won't be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
Part of the Nony family since 1934, this historic estate has been the crucible since 1973 for the creation, with the help of Michel Rolland, of a wine of great fullness and seduction, resolutely "modern" and in this respect a pioneer. The foothill terroir, varied across the 17 hectares of vineyards, has a lot to offer: the aging potential is astonishing, even in small vintages, which are particularly successful, such as the amazing 1997! The exuberance of the latest vintages must be monitored to ensure that the wines do not become too powerful.

About wine:
Grand Mayne 2019 presents a pure and beautifully defined bouquet of black cherry, blueberry, crushed violet, and mineral aromas. The harmonious palate is medium-bodied with fine definition, crisp acidity, and hints of dark chocolate on the finish, which displays both power and elegance. This is a superb Grand Mayne from Jean-Antoine Nony. 2024-2050

About wine:
Vibrant, fruity nose of blackberries, blackcurrants, cherries, violets, licorice, and pine needles. Full-bodied, with firm, ample tannins. Very concentrated with ripe black fruit and a floral touch. Try in 2023.

About wine:
What finesse and depth in the bouquet of Grand Mayne. It manages to combine intensity and finesse, revealing notes of wild berries and spices. This wine stands out for its finesse and balance, as well as its ability to create a link between liveliness and flavor. Juicy and persistent finish. A great success. 2025-2044
