Bonnes Mares, Grand Cru, mv

Dense rich and voluptuous, similar to the Chambolle Sentier but less explosive and expressive. Serious, surly and needs a little coaxing out of its thick shell, but within lies velvet-smooth, earthy dark hedgerow berry fruit. Full, enriching and autumnal. Sumptuous and multi-layered. From 80 year-old vines aged in 25% new oak. All whole bunch fermented.
