Note di degustazione
The 2015 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru has a very delineated bouquet, perhaps three-quarters red and one-quarter black fruit with a subtle marine vein. So pure and refined! The palate is beautifully balanced, offering supple tannin, red cherry, raspberry and touches of cranberry. I adore the tension and elegance of this Bonnes-Mares and the stately manner in which it fans out toward the finish. Superb. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting.

Tasted blind, the 2015 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru is more persuasive than the Clos de Bèze, offering up aromas of ripe cherries, licorice, dark chocolate and grilled squab. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, layered and concentrated, with an abundant endowment of fine but firm tannin that tempers what might otherwise be a flamboyantly ripe core of succulent fruit. This is a creditable Bonnes-Mares from Groffier.
Bright ruby-red. Very rich, deep, youthful aromas of black cherry, blackberry and licorice. Hugely dense and thick (there's more clay and sand in this soil in this soil than in the Amoureuses), but its dark fruit flavors are energized by strong minerality. Tactile wine with plenty of acidity and lift, not to mention strong dry extract and building sweetness--not sign of hydric stress here! Really glistens on the back end, with ripe tannins saturating the entire palate. This wine should enjoy a long life in bottle but even today it's demonstrating a lot of personality. The Groffier 2015s stand out for their minerality in this very ripe year--and Nicolas Groffier noted that alcohol levels in these wines are not higher than about 13%.
