Score 97/100 · Drink 2021-2038, Neal Martin, Aug 2021

The 1978 Bonnes-Mares from this now-defunct producer is just magnificent. It has a spellbinding, lifted bouquet of plush red fruit, ash and hoisin , all quite wild (you could say sauvage ). The palate is medium-bodied with a perfect line of acidity, red plum and crushed strawberry mingling with Provençal herbs. There is lovely weight and length and a pixelated finish, completing one of the best 1978s that I have encountered in a long time. Tasted at a private dinner in Beaune.
