Tasting notes
The 2023 Bonnes Mares Grand Cru is a success, offering up aromas of cherries, sweet red berries, iris and vine smoke, followed by a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and layered palate that's elegantly rich and textural, with sweet tannins and a saline, perfumed finish.

Cask sample. Mid ruby. Quite deeply coloured. Elegant, floral red-fruited notes on the nose. Medium-bodied with an emphasis on elegance and finesse. There’s a slightly metallic, iron quality to the fruit. Lofty, high-toned acidity and despite all the lightness some firm, steadfast tannins on the long, salty finish. (MH)
The 2023 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru has an understated but fragrant bouquet, with wilted iris and violet petals infusing the detailed black and blueberry fruit. The palate is so much better than the 2022—much more intense and complex, with fine tannins and insistent grip. An assiduous touch of white pepper lingers in the mouth. Very harmonious and assured, this is a great Bonnes-Mares from de Vogüé. This is destined to give 20 years of drinking pleasure. De Vogüé's Bonnes-Mares is back.
