Note di degustazione
Touches of green tea, earth and soft spice nuances add breadth to the very fresh if restrained nose of cool and pure red berry fruit scents. There is excellent vibrancy to the muscular and intense medium weight plus flavors that possess fine delineation on the moderately concentrated mid-palate, all wrapped in a still quite closed, tight and austere finish. This is clearly in no mood to be bothered at present and it's not clear when it will open again but what is clear is that this is going to need ample time in the cellar to become more civilized.

The 2010 Bonnes-Mares is a towering, statuesque wine. Layers of fruit burst from the glass in this multi-dimensional, kaleidoscopic wine. It's hard to fully capture the wine in words. Let me just say, all of the elements are in the right place. In 2010 the Bonnes-Mares captures a striking marriage of power and sensuality. This is a marvelously complete wine from Bruno Clair.

Anticipated maturity: 2025-2045. This is a fabulous set of wines from Bruno Clair and his long-time oenologist Philippe Brun. The harvest started on September 25. Yields were 22-30 hectoliters per hectare, which is to say a good 10% less than 2003, a torrid vintage marked by tiny yields. Clair describes the fruit as healthy, with no botrytis and soft tannins from the late harvest. The 2010s were 100% destemmed. New oak ranged from 25% for the villages to 50% for the Grand Crus, except for the Marsannays, which saw very little new oak.
