With a long history going back to the 15th century, Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé is one of the finest producers in the Côte de Nuits. The estate is currently led by the sisters Comtesse Claire de Causans and Marie de Ladoucette, with Jean Lupatelli as chef de cave and Jean-Luc Pépin looking after sales and marketing. The 1993 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru is surprisingly fresh right now, offering notes of red berries, violets, forest floor and a touch of chocolate. The wine can be enjoyed now but still has a long way to go.

Robert Parker
The Bonnes Mares reveals an impressive dark ruby color, a tight, reticent bouquet, medium body, high, hard, astringent tannin, and a compact, concentrated feel in the mouth. It is not a sure bet given the elevated tannin level, but it is a well-made, promising Pinot Noir that should be cellared for 6-7 years. The 1993s produced at this renowned estate are backward, stern, structured wines that optimists will deem successful if the fruit holds and the tannin melts away.
