Bonnes Mares, Grand Cru,

Firmer and more muscular than the Clos de Bèze; deep, dark crunchy forest fruit, dense-packed and serious. Intense long flavours, there is great underlying potential here. Aeration reveals more layers of flavour, cherry, loganberry, cherry stone and earth. A wine to lay down. From two parcels in the Morey commune, one of which is next to Clos de Tart, giving quite a generous, rich and voluptuous style of Bonnes-Mares. One part was planted in 1946 another in 1980.
