    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    A little more élevage in evidence at this early stage, but there’s a lovely juicy line in red berry and salted fruit below that, touches of toast and sweet earth. With a bit more release than the Latricières, this has a flow and kinetic minerality; a multi-faceted wine, with gorgeous red fruit on one hand, and plenty of non-fruit savoury complexity on the other – sweet spice and darker earth notes. There’s lots to consider here. Glorious. From 1.5HA planted on white soils on the Chambolle side of the appellation that invariably produces low yields from small, concentrated grapes. Fermented with 15% whole bunches and aged in 80% new oak.

    Neal Martin,

    The 2021 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru is matured in 80% new oak with 15% whole bunches. It has a relatively light nose for this climat (though in keeping with several others encountered.) Fine delineation, nicely focused but just missing a bit of sensuality. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, moderate weight, pretty red berry fruit laced with desiccated orange peel and marmalade, gentle and harmonious on the finish. Fine.
