Score 17/20 · Drink 2025-2035, Jancis Robinson MW, Jan 2019

Tight, clenched nose. Dry, fibrous, brightly acidic. Enigmatic? Certainly giving little away at this stage. (RH)

The 2017 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru has a very expressive bouquet with violet-tinged blackberry and boysenberry fruit, well defined and quite precise. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grain tannin, taut and linear for a Bonnes-Mares but the coiled-up energy is palpable here. There is such energy on the finish that you know that this will turn into an exceptionally fine Bonnes-Mares. Recommended.
