A very pleasant wine with sexy fruit and tannins. The oak is somewhat integrated. Got a lot better with 2 hours of air. will open my next in 3-5 years.

Opened for 2 hours. Color is fairly deep ruby red. On the nose: Cherry and some forest floor. On the palate: Fabulous rich cherry, hint of spice and forest floor funk. Very lush mouthfeel. Decent length. Wine is young but fabulous. I bought 3 bottles and I will wait a few years before drinking again to see how it evolves. I tend to really like wines from Bonnes Mares and this is no exception.

Nose of black cherries jam, très gourmand, speculoos, oriental spices... Very nice freshness, finesse, hint of small red fruit, très gourmand et chaleureux, 30 seconds finish.
