Lucien Le Moine, Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru 2011
Rich and balanced flavour profile
Bonnes Mares is one of the most prestigious Grand Cru vineyards in Burgundy, located in the villages of Chambolle-Musigny and Morey-Saint-Denis in the Côte de Nuits region. It is famous for producing both red and a small amount of white wines, but the reds are more common and sought after. The wines from Bonnes Mares are known for their power, complexity, and aging potential.
The wine is of deep ruby color with aromas of red and dark fruit, such as cherry, raspberry, and blackberry, along with hints of spice and earthy undertones. On the palate, it is full-bodied with flavours of dark fruit, such as black cherry and blackcurrant, along with a hint of vanilla and a distinct mineral undertone. The wine has a smooth texture and a balanced acidity that complements its richness, and a long and satisfying finish.
This wine pairs well with a variety of dishes, such as roasted meats, grilled vegetables, and aged cheeses.
