2023 Domaine de la Vougeraie Bonnes Mares Grand Cru

This wine is deep, powerful, perfumed, utterly tantalizing and seductive. The nose shows quiet, understated power, leading to a palate that is taut and vibrant with long acidity and a silky, rounded mouthfeel. Chalk, supple fruit and ferric earth linger with clarity and tension. A brilliant wine in near complete harmony. Made from vines planted in 1901 and 1998. The purity and finesse are impressive, bringing early drinking appeal. A true pleasure to taste such history. Drink or hold.
