Note di degustazione
The 2018 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru comes from a vineyard just north of Chambolle-Musigny (the vineyard lies mostly within Chambolle-Musigny with a small part in Morey-Saint-Denis), and it saw a similar vinification and élevage, with partial destemming and a mix of new and used oak. It has an incredibly complex nose that's loaded with red and black fruits, spice, loamy earth, and spring flower nuances. These all carry to a medium-bodied, vibrant, and ultra-pure 2018 with fine, building tannins as well as terrific balance. While it's complex and layered aromatically, it needs 3-5 years of bottle age for the palate to flesh out and should pretty much blow you away any time over the following 20 years or more.

The 2018 Bonnes Mares Grand Cru is a wild, powerful wine. Dried herbs, chalk, mint, white pepper and dried flowers give the 2018 its distinctive aromatic profile. Translucent and classically austere, the Bonnes Mares is another wine in this range that is not ready yet to show all its cards. It will be interesting to see how the 2018 develops in bottle and if more fruit emerges with time. Overall, this feels a bit light for Bonnes Mares.
