The 2009 Bonnes-Mares opens with an exotic, beguiling bouquet. Layers of fruit flow effortlessly as this powerful, rich Burgundy shows off its pedigree. The Bonnes-Mares is a thrill a minute, with its intense energy and pure freshness. This is a great showing from Mugnier. Anticipated maturity: 2019-2029.
Frederic Mugnier insists that his 2009s will outlive his 2010s. Tasting these 2009s from bottle, it hard to argue with that view.
