The Mugnier 2005 Bonnes-Mares (of which there will be only around 125 cases) leads with aromas of ripe mulberry, blackberry, roasted meat, black tea, horehound and musky florality. This is one of those decidedly darkly-hued 2005s, and lacks the refreshment, the treble high-tones, or quite the focus of its siblings. Where this wine looks likely to shine is in its depth of mineral and earthy (stone and humus) manifestations, which already dominate the finish. Certainly this represents a dramatic departure in character from most other Bonnes-Mares of the vintage, which I am at a loss to explain.

Quite different from the Fuees ? less obviously fruity. Fine and delicately fruity. Less earthy than some Bonnes Mares ? more mineral with a certain chalkiness on the finish. His parcel has both red and white soils. Finer than many ? very fine boned indeed in fact.??
