  From a 50 ml tasting.
  Deep ruby color with some purple at the edge.
  
  Black cherry, raspberry, cassis, violet, cinnamon, orange spice, hint of vanilla. As the wine opens up, raspberry liquor.
  
  On the palate black cherry, raspberry, cinnamon, violet.
  
  Medium alcohol, medium+ body, medium acidity. Prominent but fine tannins. Theres some heat coming through from the 14% alcohol. There’s firm structure and a long finish, but one where the oak is present, almost like the aftertaste of whiskey. Clearly needs more time in the bottle to integrate.
  
  The extracted color, and body of the wine is almost new world like. Reminds me of Kosta Browne Gap’s Crown, if I’m being honest.

  Nose is still rather closed. Need more air to release the aromas. Notes of red fruits, red strawberry, red cherry. Medium+ acidity and tannin. Tannin is smooth despite youthful. Medium bodied and long finish. Suggest to cellar rather than drinking.

  Lite mindre fruktdriven doft än musigny och lika tydliga lingon utan mer jordgubbar och svarta vinbär. Hittar även lite rosor och lavendel. Betydligt kraftigare doft på denna än Musigny.
  Överlägset största vinet här, smakexplosion i munnen med hög syra, sous bois, hallon, thé och en pepprighet. Trots kraften så är vinet väldigt runt och ligger kvar i munnen i evigheter. Lite mindre mineraler än Musigny men fortfarande en fin sälta. Väldigt kul att få pröva Bonnes-Mares och Musigny bredvid varandra, enorm skillnad men båda har potential att bli jättar om en sådär 20+ år.

  Tasting at Vogue (Chambolle Musigny): A dense and concentrated wine on both nose and palate. Rich dense blueberry and cherry fruit is met with significant but already proportional/integrating structure. An impressive 20+ year Bonnes Mares. 95+ (picked Aug 30th)
