Domaine Georges Roumier Bonnes Mares Grand Cru 2020

For Christophe Roumier, 2020 stands for purity, depth and aristocratic composure. The bouquet opens with fleeting reduction, cassis, violets, liquorice and fine smoke over a cool chalk note. On the palate, this nobility condenses into compact elegance: muscular yet supple, carried by fresh acidity and ultra-fine tannins. The length is almost architectural, clear and consistent. A great Bonnes-Mares that will last for decades. 96 points from Jasper Morris MW.
