Description

98 points Tim Atkin, MW (Decanter): “Domaine Arlaud’s eight rows of Bonnes Mares run up the slope from the bottom to the top and cover 0.2ha on red and a smaller percentage of white soils. Picked on September 3rd after a green harvest to reduce yields in July, this is a stunning wine with amazing depth, succulence and concentration. The 30% whole bunches added much needed freshness in such a hot year for the Grand Cru. Drinking Window: 2026-2032. (Oct 2019)”

94-97 points Jasper Morris, MW: “The Arlaud holding consist of 8 rows in the middle of the vineyard, from top to bottom. Dense concentrated purple. This is all in red fruit with a lacy gracious energy, lovely detail. The taste is very much a Chambolle style Bonnes Mares, in that it does not have the wilder notes – just a beautiful purity of long and concentrated fruit. (Nov 2019)”

94-96 points Neal Martin (Vinous): “The 2018 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru has a finely detailed bouquet, the 30% whole bunch nicely integrated and the absence of new oak allowing the ebullient black cherry and blueberry fruit to prosper. The focused palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and a fine bead of acidity, and blessed with an impressive minerally finish that lingers for 45 seconds after the wine has departed. Superb. Drink: 2021-2050. (Jan 2020)”
