Bonnes Mares, Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé 2010

Tasting Notes

**Note: from a 2.7 ha parcel situated entirely in terres rouges soil in the south-west portion of the vineyard**
Not unexpectedly here the brooding and somber nose is completely different with a much greater emphasis on earth and smoked tea nuances on the darker hued fruit that includes cassis and black raspberry. The rich, powerful and impressively concentrated large-scaled flavors exhibit a sleek muscularity on the pure, balanced and gorgeously long finish. Like most of these 2010s, there is a serenity present here that allows the wines to unfold elegantly and coherently. This is a compact and quite forceful wine yet it delivers that power with no sense of weight or heaviness.
