"[From a .24 ha parcel of 36 year old vines.] An interesting as well as potent nose features menthol and wood spice hints among the airy red and black pinot fruit aromas that introduce rich, full and sweet flavors that are not quite as ripe as those of the Clos St. Denis. As a consequence, this is even more reserved and while not taciturn, it's clear that this is going to require at least a decade in the cellar to really unleash the brooding power and depth the concentrated flavors possess. Stunning potential here."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
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.
Bonnes-Mares is a Grand Cru straddling Chambolle-Musigny and Morey-Saint-Denis in Burgundy's Cote de Nuits, producing powerful, dense yet perfumed Pinot Noir reds that combine muscle with finesse and reward long cellaring.
2005 in Burgundy is a legendary vintage from a near-ideal, dry growing season; both reds and whites are concentrated, structured and superbly balanced, with dense tannins and exceptional long-term aging potential.
