2022 Bertheau Bonnes Mares Grand Cru 750Ml Bottle

This is from the red dirt of Bonnes Mares and is the firmest and most backwards of the two big guns. It's a tiny parcel with vines that are about 45yo.

“This is the first wine to display any perceptible wood influence though even here it's quite subtle and easily allow the perfumed aromas of red cherry, currant and soft spice elements to be appreciated. There again good volume and richness to the seductively textured larger-bodied flavors that possess better power, if less minerality and refinement on the balanced finale.” 91-94 pts – Allen Meadows, Burghound
