Rich, red-black fruited, med tart, grippy, gritty, touch of gunflint. 13.5% Alc.
Liked this quite a lot once it warmed up and woke up.
Steen Öhman (Winehog) calls Bonne Mares the "Darker side of Chambolle" I would agree. Tastes like the love child of MSD and Chambolle, but by the map, Bertheau's parcel is smack in the middle of Bonne Mare.

Compared to the open knitted 2010 Les Amoureuses, the Bonnes Mares is still a bit coiled. Good underlying structure to become much better but the wine is overall a bit quiet and muted tonight.

A Good Wednesday: Bertheau x3, Arnoux, Geantet Pansiot, Niellon, Guffens Heynen; 3/20/2024-3/22/2024: Blind #1...Coravin....Acid- silky chambolle- but a spiced power. Elegant- drinking Great. I think we all liked this- menthol... pedigree.

Flowers, power and the iron fist. A concoction of polished red fruits, lovely petals and bright sparkles of burg umami.
