Tasting Notes

Deep garnet with brick reflections, showing the grace of maturity. The nose is complex and beautifully evolved, with aromas of stewed cherry, dried raspberry, leather, undergrowth, truffle, and soft spice. On the palate, the wine is silky and harmonious, with smooth, integrated tannins, vibrant acidity, and a long, elegant finish with earthy and spicy nuances.

A superbly mature Bonnes Mares Grand Cru — powerful yet refined, offering depth, aromatic richness, and remarkable aging elegance.

Pairing

Perfect with roasted venison, duck breast, beef filet with mushroom sauce, or aged cheeses like Époisses or Comté.
