Particularly blue tinge. Broad, sumptuous and already appealing on the nose – in stark contrast to wines from this producer tasted earlier. Still quite firm and chestnutty on the palate. This should develop into something really quite special – eventually.
This is also quite restrained, indeed almost shy with a muted nose of dark berry fruit and earth that gives way to extremely fresh, supple and surprisingly forward flavors that almost instantly tighten up into a backwards and very firm and austere finish. This is a classically styled and proportioned Bonnes Mares that will require at least 15 years of cellar time.
