Log in / Sign up Comte Georges de Vogüé Bonnes Mares Grand Cru 2017
The 2017 Bonnes Mares Grand Cru is also unusually saturated in hue this year, though Millet reports having done no more pigeage than usual. Offering up aromas of dark cherries, wild berries, cassis, dark chocolate, peony, and caramelized orange rind, the wine is medium to full-bodied, ample, and elegantly fine-boned, with chalky structuring tannins, a pure core of fruit and a long, fragrant finish. Despite its disconcertingly deep hue, this is one of the most supple, elegant renditions of the de Vogüé Bonnes Mares in the last decade.
