The domaine owns a high-slope 0.28 parcel planted in 1920 in this legendary grand cru which straddles the border of Morey-Saint-Denis and Chambolle-Musigny. Compared to the riotousness of the Clos de la Roche, this Bonnes-Mares is aromatically finer, though no less spice-drenched. The palate is all about gentleness and grace, its ultra-concentrated old-vines fruit carried along on waves of silk. Benoit jokes that Bonnes-Mares can be “too perfect”—but there is truly nothing else like it in the entire Côte d’Or. (40% new oak.)
