Bonnes Mares 2008 Domaine Dujac

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (94)

Black tea, herbal essences, tar, dried blood, and concentration of tiny black raspberries are suggested on the nose and palate of Dujac’s 2008 Bonnes Mares. For all of its density, this exhibits invigorating primary juiciness, finishing with spirit-lifting, exuberant buoyancy and a nearly indelible paving of berry and herb essences, tar, graphite, and white pepper. This is a terrific ambassador for its vintage – I find it hard to imagine another year in which it could have been grown – and one that should perform admirably for another 12-15 years.
