Tasting notes
"Bonnes Mares comes from the earth, Chambolle-Musigny Les Amoureuses from the air," said Mugnier. The ruby-colored 1999 Bonnes Mares has an earthy, sweet berry-scented nose. It is light to medium-bodied, austere, firm, and foursquare. Crisp cherries, stones, gravel, and minerals can be found in its rugged, almost hard character. I am concerned that its tannin will dominate its delicate fruit. Anticipated maturity: ? A Becky Wasserman Selection / Le Serbet; French Fax: 011-33-3-80-24-29-70, various American importers.
