Domaine Bruno Clair Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru 2006 750ml

Vinous

Bruno Clair, who harvested quite late in 2006 (September 27 through October 7), says that this vintage now gives a great deal of pleasure, while 2005 is powerful but closed, with the constitution to age for a long time. The big news here is that the estate took back much of its Bonnes-Mares in early 2006, and has virtually doubled its quantities of Chambertin Clos de Beze, Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Saint-Jacques and Vosne-Romanee Champs-Perdrix, following the expiration of long-term rental agreements (mostly with Jadot) that had been signed when Bruno's father Bernard left him 15 hectares of vineyards in 1988.
