94+ JG I love the classic personality of the 2002 Domaine Bertheau Bonnes-Mares. The wine delivers superb depth and complexity in its aromatic constellation of black cherries, dark berries, woodsmoke, venison, dark soil tones, fresh herbs and just a hint of the heather to come with further bottle age.

This is an excellent wine, but, in proper Bonnes-Mares fashion, it is still several years away from truly blossoming." 93 AM ...very ripe black fruit and violet notes that lead to intense, huge and powerful, moderately structured full-bodied flavors that deliver stunningly good length plus a finish that is wrapped in sap that coats and stains the palate…

Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
Produces the most delicate and perfumed reds of the Cote de Nuits, prized for floral elegance and silky texture.
A thin-skinned, terroir-sensitive red producing perfumed, silky and elegant wines of red-berry fruit and earthy complexity. It reaches its apogee in Burgundy.
