Score 90-93/100 · Pierre Rovani, Wine Advocate, Oct 1999

The dark ruby-colored 1997 Bonnes Mares is crafted in a radically different style . This floral-scented wine's personality is well-delineated, elegant and fresh. It is powerful yet harmonious, and reveals primarily dark fruit flavors. This refined, precise, and medium to full-bodied wine should be consumed over the next 8-9 years.
