  The best wine of this cellar for 2020 if we except the fabulous Clos de Beze

  La Paulee NY 2023. On Terres rouges, on the morey side, on a very hot site usually yielding very tight wines with fiery tannins. In 2020, Arthur Clair made a fine Bonnes Mares, one of the best ever made here, spicy, dense black fruits, lush and round, the structure sneaking back at the end but the plentiful tannins are fine and not dry, very well judged, ending in a long finish. This dense wine will need at least 10 years, and will last many more years.

  La Paulee 2023 - Grand Tasting (New York): Brief impressions at La Paulee. This was surprisingly open and probably showed the best of all the Bruno Clair wines, even though one would expect the GC to be the most closed (and that too the Bonnes Mares). Lot's of tannins but deep, brooding confected fruit. Some oak but not obtrusive. Mossy nose. Even though this was pretty drinkable it is holding back and better to wait.

  2023 La Paulee Grand Tasting of 2020 Burgundy (Pier 60, New York): Deep ruby core. Big, round, lush, and sweet with candied blueberry fruit, citric lift, deeply imbued soil and moderate drying tannins. Serious, heavyweight wine that transitions from glorious upfront fruit and roundness to a powerfully structured, austere finish that will take 15 years to begin to resolve and have a life span of 30 or more years. Bruno Clair was not fooling around with these 2 wines! Fabulous quality.
