| Description: | 95 De / 93-96 Vm / 92-95 Bh / 91-94 Jm. The Bonnes-Mares is an excellent, cellar worthy wine this year, opening in the glass with a bouquet of cherries, wild berries, currant leaf, coffee and gamebird. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and concentrated, with excellent depth, rich but chalky tannins, and good energy through the long, penetrating finish. This is firmly structured but has the dimension and amplitude to carry it.-William Kelley, Decanter. Again a ripe bright purple, a nose with bounding energy, two thirds red soil to one third white. Raspberries and strawberries together, very exuberant. Rich powerful weighty, loads of fruit here and even a fresh explosion at the finish. How noble is the only remaining question? Tasted: October 2017.-Stephen Tanzer, Vinous Media. Note: 100% from the Chambolle side that combines about one-third terres rouges and the remainder from terres blanches. Tasting note: A densely fruited and liqueur-like nose of red cherry, underbrush, spice, earth and menthol slides into the massively-scaled and suave flavors that possess superb mid-palate concentration and evident muscularity before culminating in a robust, powerful and imposingly structured finish that goes on and on. Once again this is an exceptionally firm effort that is beyond all doubt built-to-age and a wine that is going to need at least a decade of bottle age first.-Allen Meadows, Burghound. Again a ripe bright purple, a nose with bounding energy, two thirds red soil to one third white. Raspberries and strawberries together, very exuberant. Rich powerful weighty, loads of fruit here and even a fresh explosion at the finish. How noble is the only remaining question? Tasted: October 2017.-Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy |
