A reserved, cool and more elegant nose combines notes of plum, black berry and violet nuances along with plenty of earth influence where the supporting wood character is more discreet. The exceptionally rich and full-bodied flavors possess a textured mouth feel in large part because of the impressive amount of sap before culminating in a driving if slightly warm finish where the very dense tannins are largely if not completely buffered. This is a classic Bonnes Mares it's a mix of power, muscle and a certain amount of refinement. Once again though, this is not likely to make for good early drinking so buy it with the idea of cellaring it for at least a decade.
