AN ALLURING ASSEMBLY FOR BURGUNDY LOVERS
Removed from temperature and humidity controlled cellerage
Bonnes-Mares--Vintage 1999
Côte de Nuit, de Vogüé
"Massive notes of blueberry and blackberry jam yet there is a certain austerity to the nose followed by flavors that are huge, firm, reserved and extremely dense and while there is a solid underpinning of tannin, they are wrapped in sappy velvet. The length is just flat out stunning and very powerful. This remains quite closed and while it presently does not possess the refinement of either the '02 or the '01, with time it may catch them as the underlying material is every bit as good. Consistent notes." BH, Mar 8, 2008
