Nicolas Potel Bonnes-Mares 2006 is a full-bodied Burgundy red wine from the Grand Cru climat of Bonnes-Mares in the Chambolle-Musigny appellation of the Côte de Nuits. Established in 1997, Maison Nicolas Potel is a négociant business making wines from top-tier vineyards in the Côte de Nuits and the Côte de Beaune. On the 2006 Grand Cru Bonnes-Mares. "The Potel 2006 Bonnes Mares is another case of truth in terroir, as it leads with a site-typical savagery of tart red fruits, pungent herbs, and smoked meats. Red currant, raspberry, sage, wormwood, sassafras, liquorice, black tea, white pepper, and ham hock are all contributory to the rich, dense-packed, invigorating display, culminating in a finish that practically gangs up on your palate. This is not where to look for the gentle or subtle side of 2006 Burgundian Pinot, and it may never shed a certain rusticity of tannin. I would anticipate at least a dozen years of excitement from bottles. The wine was actually a bit reduced and needed time to gather its formidable forces before it really landed the first punch." Wine Advocate, 2009
92 Vinous
- Medium red. Pungent minerality, brown spices, smoked meat, bacon rind, pepper and musky underbrush on the nose. Then quite tight and backward in the mouth, with youthfully imploded menthol, spice and pepper flavors currently dominating the wine's underlying fruit. Finishes dry and quite tannic, with a whiff of white pepper. This serious, uncompromising wine is going to need a good decade of patience.
