Note di degustazione
Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. Limpid in color, de Vogüé’s Bonnes Mares 2011 has quite a precocious bouquet with black cherries, cassis and crushed violets that demonstrates impressive clarity. The palate is medium-bodied with sweet ripe black cherries and cassis fruit underlying minerality. It feels backward compared to two other Bonnes-Mares ‘11s tasted alongside, although there is impressive persistence on the precise finish. This is a classy Bonnes-Mares, albeit one that I feel is surpassed by the succeeding vintage.

Good deep, dark red. Deep, multifaceted aromas of dark cherry, blueberry, menthol, violet, brown spices, licorice and cardamom. Plush, sweet and spicy, with a distinctly wild quality to the blueberry and huckleberry flavors accented by peppery herbs. Youthfully imploded Bonnes-Mares, with a tight, powerful finish that calls for patience. Superb.
Cloves, licorice, menthol and dark blue/blackish fruit inform the 2011 Bonnes-Mares. A wine that shows little of the early approachability of the year, the Bonnes-Mares is dense, compact and vibrant to the core, all of which bodes well for the future. Readers need to be patient here.
Deep red-ruby. Slightly high-toned aromas of blueberry, roasted herbs, musky earth and chocolate; this could hardly be more different from the Amoureuses. Round, rich and sweet, with a fairly sizable structure for 2011. Plenty of depth here but the black fruit and chocolate flavors seem almost heavy following the Amoureuses. Finishes with dusty, broad tannins and excellent rising length. Became increasingly dense and sensual with aeration.
