Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru Domaine Fougeray de Beauclair 1997
The wine
Half-way between Musigny and Chambertin, Bonnes-Mares is a really racy wine with a gorgeous ruby colour that is both bright and intense. It has complex aromas that combine Morello cherry, cherry wood, raspberry, and undertones of brown tobacco. After ageing it develops truffle and musk aromas. The wine has a powerful tannic structure on the palate which is balanced with a lovely mellowness.
