Lot #859. Domaine Bart Bonnes-Mares 2011

Description: Consists of 12 Bottles, 0.75L
Score: 94 JG.
"As I noted last year, Domaine Bart’s parcel of Bonnes-Mares lies directly above that of the Comte de Vogüé on the slope, and consequently, this wine is almost entirely terres blanches (as the terres rouges section of the vineyard lies further down the slope here in the Comte de Vogüé section). The Bart’s old vines in Bonnes-Mares were raised in their customary fifty percent new wood this year and fifty percent of the stems were retained as well. This is a superb young bottle of Bonnes-Mares in the making, wafting from the glass in a deep and classy blend of black cherries, dark berries, woodsmoke, bitter chocolate, a touch of venison, a complex base of soil and a nice framing of cedary oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and youthfully structured, with a rock solid core of fruit, lovely transparency, ripe, firm tannins and outstanding length and grip on the focused and classic finish. Superb juice in the making." John Gilman, View From the Cellar, May/Jun 2013, Issue #45
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $1,900
