2021, Domaine de la Vougeraie, BONNES-MARES, Grand CruA glowing palish purple. The whole bunches (100%) change everything. This is classic Vougeraie and very stylish. The nose is an absolute bomb of vigorous and very pure fresh red fruit. A wonderful expression, with enough fruit weight to carry it through. Good acidity with a fresh citrus note alongside the perfumed raspberries. Persistent. **** 94 97 Jasper Morris MW. An overtly floral nose features pretty red berry fruit aromas that are nuances by

licorice and burning embers

finishing long and minerally

Very drinkable

97-98 James Suckling

Lots of nuance and complexity

A serious Pomerol even in the lightest of vintages

it is both intense and harmonious

The biggest production volume for four years

A blend of 51% Cabernet Sauvignon

red cherries

To get this sort of pedigree for less than $100 is a rarity in Napa these days
