Unfurling in the glass with aromas of raspberries, cherries, rose petals, smoke and dark chocolate, the 2022 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru (Domaine Louis Jadot) is full-bodied, layered and seamless, with a satiny attack that segues into a deep and creamy core of fruit that's underpinned by lively acids and framed by sweet, melting tannins. This, too, is a real success.
The 2022 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru is well-defined on the nose, with a mélange of red and blueberry fruit, crushed violet and light iris flower scents. This is going to be very seductive. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins and layers of mineral-rich red fruit counterbalanced by a perfectly judged line of acidity. It discretely fans out on the finish and feels tender despite the power here. Superb.
Generous wood and menthol elements are present on the cooler and more restrained nose of mostly red and dark cherry. The succulent and seductive flavors are also rich but not super-dense (though by no means dilute) where the lingering and solidly powerful finish tightens up considerably. This should amply reward extended keeping.
30% whole bunch vinification for this small cuvée. Fine bright fresh purple. Plenty of generous fruit here, lifted raspberries, very generous, this has not dried out at all (which can be a risk for Bonnes mares in hot dry years). A little bit savoury at the back with the crushed strawberries. Drink from 2032-2038.
