Domaine Francois Bertheau Bonnes Mares Grand Cru 2023

Domaine François Bertheau’s Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru 2023 comes from one of Chambolle-Musigny’s most revered sites, offering a rare blend of power, precision, and depth. Sourced from a tiny 0.344-hectare parcel in terres rouges, this is the estate’s most muscular wine and one that has earned a reputation for rewarding patience and cellaring.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows the classic depth of great Pinot Noir from Bonnes-Mares, with a concentrated, finely structured core. The nose is layered and expressive, opening with peonies, cherry, cassis, blackcurrant leaf, and earthy, mineral tones that add complexity and lift. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, dense yet vibrant, with juicy acidity carrying flavors of dark cherry, red berries, and savory earth. The finish is long, mineral, and firmly structured, suggesting excellent aging potential; this is a wine that will evolve beautifully over time and benefits from decanting when young.

Production
The grapes come from Bertheau’s small parcel in Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru, planted on terres rouges, a terroir known for contributing power, structure, and a distinctly earthy character. In the cellar, the fruit is fully destemmed and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks for two to three weeks, allowing for careful extraction and precision. Aging is restrained, with new oak rarely exceeding 10%, preserving the purity and site expression of the wine.

Food & Serving
This Grand Cru is an excellent match for refined dishes such as roast duck, venison, pigeon, truffled poultry, or mushroom-based preparations. It should be served at around 16–18°C, and a young bottle will benefit from a generous decant to help it open up and show its full aromatic range.
