2018 Domaine Georges Roumier, Bonnes Mares Grand Cru 1x750ml

Robert Parker 96

The 2018 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru is a deep and muscular wine, unwinding in the glass with aromas of cassis, wild berries, peonies and forest floor. On the palate, it’s full-bodied, powerful and multidimensional, its concentrated core framed by an ample chassis of rich, powdery tannins, concluding with a long and resonant finish. Derived from fully six different parcels, this is another long-lived Bonnes-Mares in the making, and patience will be required to realize all its potential. [William Kelley, 12/10/2019]
