Tasting notes
Loads of raspberries, metal shavings, and leather can be discerned in the intense aromatics of the focused 1999 Bonnes Mares. This medium to dark ruby-colored wine has an explosive, powerful, and medium-bodied personality. It is finely etched, yet lush and super-ripe. Projected maturity: 2004-2012. Importers: A Peter Vezan Selection, Paris fax #011-33-1-42-55-42-93 and Atherton Wine Imports, Atherton, CA; tel. (650) 328-6639.
