Tasting notes
The 2022 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru is superb, unfurling from the glass with fragrant notes of sweet red berries, rose petals, Indian spices, plum and a subtle touch of vine smoke. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied, satiny and seamlessly textured, displaying remarkable brightness and purity. The tannins are fine and melting, carrying the wine toward a long, mouthwatering, and exquisitely persistent finish.
