Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru--Vintage 2005
Côte de Nuits. Domaine-bottled: Comtes Georges de Vogüé
In original wooden case
Tasting note: The 2005 Bonnes Mares marries black and red raspberries with fresh- sorbet- and liquer-like aspects alternating on a quite refined, polished, and (for this cru) seemingly less-savage than usual palate. Myriad herbs and spices mingle with the fruit and suggestions of wood smoke, horehound and sassafras emerge along with the sweet raspberries in a lingering finish that administers a considerable lashing of fine tannin and displays a sappy, resinous, faintly peppery cling. This is certainly the alter ego of this years cool, floral, tender Amoureuses. (93-94 points). David Schildknecht, Wine Advocate #170, April 2007
