Les Bonnes-Mares

Lovely, bright, pure purple, the gorgeous nose offers a range of fruit from damson to strawberry, via dense raspberry, all in a cream-laden Chambolle style. To avoid an overdose of succulence, Olivier uses a higher proportion of whole bunches for this wine, providing a thread of crisp acidity, a long, fresh follow-through: pure, clear and classic. This demonstrates real elegance across the palate, yet offering great power and tension through to the end.

Grand cru, Grand Vin. Beautifully perfumed in a magical, hedonistic style. Yet the excellent structure of the palate will ensure that this repays keeping for 10 years.

Another magical purple colour, a cloak with a rich velvet lining. It is all there on the palate, a huge buoyant mouthful, while the nose still has more to give. Lush but not louche, a mix of really fine fruit with some crunchiness in the structure. Awesomely long finish.
