A riper and more restrained nose requires some swirling to reveal its aromas of plum liqueur, blue berry, cassis, earth and a more restricted range of spice elements. The bigger and richer flavors possess an opulent richness and a velvety texture that coats the palate and enrobes the firmer tannic spine shaping the powerful, tautly muscular and strikingly persistent finale. This too possesses superb development potential though patience definitely advised.
Black centre with a purple rim. The Bonnes Mares offers a denser, darker and more sombre nose coming after the explosive Amoureuses. Altogether a firmer framework, then a hugely intense coulis of blackcurrant, nothing cooked and there is good acidity behind. Myrtilles adds François. Intense more than magisterial. Not quite so persistent as the Amoureuses. Tasted: November 2020
