Tasting Notes

Like the Clos de Vougeot, this is unusually expressive at this very early stage with a highly seductive nose that combines a full panoply of red, blue and black fruit aromas, including blueberry and cassis along with an ample range of spice and earth nuances that complement perfectly the ripe, rich, intense and sweet medium full flavors that possess a beguiling texture on the driving finish. This is not a big or especially powerful Bonnes Mares, even by the standards of the elegant and refined Drouhin style but it's exceptionally classy and perfectly balanced. The 2006 wine of the vintage for Drouhin
