It is a rather rich, masculine wine, giving flavours of black fruit and spices, making way for excellent freshness and length on the palate with a slightly chalky feel. Although this wine is quite charming when young, it will reveal all its potential after resting a long time in the cellar.
"The 2018 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru includes 30% whole bunch with 80% new oak. It has a backward, bashful bouquet that gradually opens to reveal blackberry, boysenberry and light cassis aromas and wonderful mineralité and focus. The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy red currant and cranberry fruit on the entry. Linear for a Bonnes-Mares, with outstanding tension and energy on the finish. Stunning." Vinous
