Estimated full landed price – $1,024.65

Glowing purple, then a very seductive nose, deep red berry fruits with complexity, However the structure is notably firmer here, even a hint of earthiness, before the deep red fruit, with a suggestion of blackberry and black cherry, advances. Fairly concentrated. Good acidity. Drink from 2032-2038.
*** 92-95 Jasper Morris MW.

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.
94-97 Neal Martin, Vinous.

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.
93-94 William Kelley.

A slightly riper nose of blue skinned fruit, plum, anise and more evident floral influence is complemented by the equally ripe, rich and opulent larger-bodied flavours where the seductive texture contrasts markedly with the firm, serious, powerful and robust finale. This beautifully well-balanced and superbly long effort should age effortlessly.
92-95 Burghound.
