Domaine J.-F. Mugnier, Bonnes Mares 2012

The Bonnes Mares is quite a big step up in weight from the Amoureuses. In the nose layers of dark and red fruit with a deep partly earthy minerality – is a combination of terres blanc and terres rouges terroir. On the palate rich and quite weighty fruit – effortless power – with a magnificent balance and very fine length. A textbook Bonnes Mares … and then some!

(Drink from 2027) – Very Fine+ (94 – 95p) – Tasted 12/09/2013 from cask.

Mugnier made very hedonistic 2015s, and I was therefore very ...
