Note di degustazione
Mellow, expressive aromas of musky strawberry and spices are a bit less sauvage than those of the Clos de Bèze. Smoother in the mouth as well, offering lovely finesse and restrained sweetness to the fine-grained raspberry and strawberry fruit flavors. The slowly building whiplash of a finish really stains the palate, with firm but ripe tannins contributing to the overall impression of freshness. Lingering saline minerality adds another dimension. (Incidentally, Nicolas Groffier seemed determined to show his two grand crus; he tried and failed to remove the corks of a first bottle of each wine but the second time was the charm.).

Dee p red. Pure, sappy, complex aromas of wild red berries, mocha, menthol, wild herbs, cardamom and mace; very Bonnes-Mares. Sweet, chewy and deep, with lovely flavor definition and grip. Very rich but classically dry. Wonderfully sweet, expanding finish shows very fine tannins and is lifted by a menthol note. The supple, suave texture and fullness of this grand cru is testament to the Groffiers' vineyard work.
Raw meat, black fruits, and spices can be found in the profound aromas of the 2002 Bonnes Mares. Medium to full-bodied, thick, and concentrated, this is a structured yet lush effort, crammed with stony black fruits. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2014.

(13.8% natural alcohol) Deep red. Explosive aromas of redcurrant, plum, blueberry and mocha, with the insinuating smoky/vegetal aspect typical of this grand cru. Fat, thick and sweet but with lovely inner-palate energy. More spicy and less animal than usual for this cuvee, with hints of blood orange and peony. Very creamy, slow-building finish shows excellent pungent cut.
