ONE OF THE RENOWNED BURGUNDY GRANDS CRUS

Grand cru located in the communes of Chambolle-Musigny and Morey-Saint-Denis, Bonnes-Mares is located just after Clos de Tart, adjoining Grand Cru. The vineyard benefits from an oceanic climate with a semi-continental influence and limestone and marly soils. This Burgundy Grand Cru thus benefits from exceptional soil and orientation, with exposure to the east and an altitude of 250 to 280 meters on average. This red wine exclusively made from Pinot Noir, racy and very delicate presents an exceptional aromatic range.

AN ELEGANT BURGUNDY RED WINE

This prestigious appellation produces fine and elegant wines coveted by the world's greatest connoisseurs. Bonnes Mares is expressed only through red wines made from Pinot Noir: the king of grape varieties for red Burgundy wines. This Burgundy Grand Cru is characterised by elegance and roundness while retaining great tannic power. A wine often presented as a wine of silk and lace, expressing a legendary delicacy. The intensity and finesse are indeed expressed with a delicate subtlety.
