Wine Region: Burgundy - France
Grape: 100% Pinot noir.
Tasting notes: Ruby red color. With a perfumed nose of rose, pumpkin and granite. Good, consistent texture with soft tannins. Very well balanced with softness and freshness of flavors, with hints of black berries, blueberries and persistent finish.
" An ultra-fresh and distinctly cool nose displays crystalline pure of red berry fruit along hints spice, floral and wood. The super-sleek and almost painfully intense flavors flash a taut muscularity on the dusty, highly compact and very austere finish that goes on and on. This overtly powerful wine is backward to the point of being grumpy and I would strongly advise not touching a bottle for at least a decade." – Allen Meadows, Burghound.com
" A crimson colour. The Bonnes Mares went through its malolactic fermentation early (in January) which makes the bouquet softer and more open. But this wine is generous, gregarious, and very classic in its wilder shores of Chambolle fashion. Wonderfully sensual, then a touch more structure to bring up the finish correctly. Drink from 2028-2036. Tasted: December 2022. " – Jasper Morris, Insideburgundy.com

About the Winery: Bruno Clair is the son of Bernard Clair (1920-2005) and the grandson of Joseph Clair (1889-1971), originator of the famous Domaine ClairDaü which was founded in Marsannay in 1919.
Following Joseph’s death, family disagreements led to the dismantling of the Domaine Clair-Daü in 1985. In 1986, Bruno was entrusted with the vineyards of his parents, brothers and sisters which included those of Clos de Bèze, Cazetiers, Clos Saint-Jacques, Vosne-Romanée, Clos du Fonteny and Chambolle-Musigny. More vineyards were purchased by Bruno Clair in 1993, including Corton-Charlemagne, Pernand Vergelesses and Aloxe-Corton. In 1996, Gevrey-Chambertin "Petite Chapelle" was added to bring the size of the Domaine to more than 23 hectares.
Bruno is working with his wife Isabelle and his son Edouard joined the Domaine in 2012. Very involved in the vine cultivation, Edouard is progressively converting the Domaine to organic production. In 2018, Bruno & Isabelle's second son Arthur joined the Domaine and he will work on the commercial dimension.
