Domaine Bouchard Pere & Fils - Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru - 2013

Once again there is ample menthol character to the overtly spicy aromas of plum liqueur and violet. The impressively rich and broad-shouldered flavors also possess outstanding mid-palate concentration with plenty of extract that completely coats the mouth and buffers the very firm tannic spine on the hugely long, powerful and balanced finish. This is a knockout with superb aging potential. 92-95 Points Allen Meadows, Burghound
