  Next to 2001. Somewhat shut today with excellent acidity and good delineation on the palate. Almost mistook it for oxidation. 94+

  What a treat to open this as the final Bourgogne of the year.
  Brought for NYE dinner - no formal notes.
  Nose with a full store of spices, a complete flower garden and tons of minerals!
  Just perfect - so deep and alluring, complex beyond words - completely seductive.
  Palate is dense, filled with the most beautiful mix of perfect pinot Noir - cherries, sweeter strawberries, spices, earth, minerals.
  Rich and complex, silky - but so much more to be had if if given another 5 years I would say - still acting like a very young wine.
  Unreleased and held back at this time, but nevertheless completely and purely enjoyable and a gift from Bacchus.
  Among the best bottles of Bonnes Mares I have ever had.
  This might turn in to a 100 points wine with some further aging.
  (97 - 99+)

  Popped in advance for S+K wedding lunch Paulee at Nicolas. Tasted in Grassl Cru.
  Appearance is clear, pale intensity, ruby colour with a very thin watery rim. Legs.
  Nose is clean, medium+ intensity, with aromas of beguiling violet florals, earth, minerals, hint of perfumed musk. Then spice and very fresh red fruits that feel primary even at 20 years old.
  On the palate, dry, high acidity, medium alcohol (13.5%), cashmere-like entry fanning out with some grip medium+ tannin, medium+ body. Complete complex mouth-feel with medium+ intensity flavours of ripe strawberries, fresh red cherries, constant interplay of earth + mineral + spice. Exceptional long finish.
  Excellent quality. Closest experience for me so far to the lauded 'peacock's tail' talked about for Musigny (although this is not a Musigny). Still young!!!
  Closed up at lunch. Structure evident. Fresh and young.
