Bonnes Mares Grand Cru 2020
The 2020 vintage demonstrates the power and nobility that has made this grand cru one of Burgundy's most celebrated sites. Straddling the villages of Morey-Saint-Denis and Chambolle-Musigny, Bonnes-Mares is known for combining muscular structure with ethereal elegance.
The bouquet is profound and complex, revealing deep dark fruit notes intermingled with exotic spices, violet florals, and an underlying mineral tension characteristic of this prestigious terroir. The aromatic complexity suggests both the power and refinement that Bonnes-Mares is renowned for.
On the palate, the wine displays impressive depth and concentration, with a masterful balance between power and finesse. The structure is formidable yet sophisticated - a hallmark of great Bonnes-Mares - with refined tannins providing the framework for extended aging. The finish is remarkably persistent and multi-layered, showcasing waves of fruit, mineral notes, and subtle spice that continue to evolve.
This is a wine that captures the essence of one of Burgundy's most compelling terroirs while reflecting both the warmth of the 2020 vintage and Charlopin's skilled winemaking approach.
