Another cuvée that was also in bottle when I visited the 2022 Bonnes Mares Grand Cru unfurls in the glass with aromas of cherries and raspberries mingled with exotic notes and sweet forest floor. Medium to full-bodied layered and fleshy it's concentrated and textural with nicely integrated tannins lively acids and a long saline rose-inflected finish. Its more sensual style is a welcome evolution.

An even spicier and more floral-suffused nose is comprised mostly by blue pinot fruit and discreet earth wisps. The succulent refined and vibrant medium-bodied flavors aren't especially concentrated though they do possess impressive power on the beautifully long and equally well-balanced finale. This is a wine that is certainly built to repay extended keeping but it's not so compact that it couldn't be reasonably approached after only 5 to 7 years.
Vinous: 90 Points
The 2022 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru had been bottled in October 2023 just before my visit at the Domaine. It has a compact nose: mainly black cherries and crushed strawberry fruit well-defined if maybe missing the amplitude of other Bonnes-Mares that I have tasted. The medium-bodied palate has a slightly creamy-textured opening sweet blackberry and raspberry and touches of dark chocolate and mocha. There?s fine depth on the finish with light grip. Some wood tannins mark the finish and slightly occlude the fruit expression here.
