The 2017 Bonnes Mares Grand Cru has a very stern bouquet, quite distant at first, then gradually almost reluctantly unfurling with sea-influenced black fruit, hints of brine and oyster shell in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-boded tannin, foursquare for a Bonnes Mares, eschewing flamboyance for something more noble. This is certainly a more Morey-inspired Bonnes Mares than Chambolle, but nevertheless is a very fine wine of considerable breeding.

Bruno Clair is a prominent Burgundian wine producer, respected for his role in establishing and maintaining high standards of quality in the wines of the region. Founded in 1979, Domaine Bruno Clair is based in Marsannay, and it has become synonymous with exceptional Burgundy wines, particularly known for its Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.

**Background and Development:**
Bruno Clair founded his domaine following the dissolution of the family domaine, Clair-Daü, which was once a respected name in Burgundy. Starting with vineyards from family holdings, particularly in Marsannay and Fixin, Bruno Clair quickly expanded, acquiring parcels in some of Burgundy's most prestigious appellations, including Gevrey-Chambertin, Vosne-Romanée, and Corton.

**Vineyards and Terroir:**
Domaine Bruno Clair owns vineyards across multiple Burgundian crus, including coveted plots in Clos de Bèze and Clos Saint-Jacques in Gevrey-Chambertin. The domaine is particularly noted for its holdings in the lesser-known appellation of Marsannay, which has risen in stature partly due to Clair’s efforts. His vineyards are managed with sustainable practices, emphasizing organic methods, although not officially certified. 

**Winemaking Philosophy:**
Bruno Clair’s approach to winemaking is defined by minimal intervention. The goal is to let the terroir express itself, hence, fermentation occurs with natural yeasts, and the wines are aged in oak barrels with a careful consideration of the use of new oak to avoid overshadowing the purity of the fruit. Clair's wines are known for their clarity, precision, and ability to age gracefully.

**Wine Style and Characteristics:**
The wines of Domaine Bruno Clair are highly esteemed for their balance, depth, and complexity. The reds are structured yet elegant, showcasing the typical red and black fruit flavors of Pinot Noir, accented with earthy, spicy notes. The whites are equally praised, particularly the Chardonnays from Corton-Charlemagne, which display richness, minerality, and vibrant acidity.

**Reputation:**
Bruno Clair is regarded as a meticulous and thoughtful vintner, with wines that reflect his deep understanding of Burgundy’s diverse terroirs. His influence extends beyond his own wines, as he has been a mentor to younger generations of winemakers in Burgundy. The wines are highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts around the world, celebrated for their authenticity and craftsmanship.

Overall, Domaine Bruno Clair continues to be a benchmark for quality in Burgundy, with Bruno Clair himself an emblematic figure in the preservation and innovation of Burgundian winemaking traditions.

La région viticole française de Bourgogne est peut-être petite en taille, mais son influence est énorme dans le monde du vin. La complexité de la Bourgogne peut effrayer même un professionnel du vin chevronné, mais n'ayez crainte : la région est aussi compliquée que vous le souhaitez. Certes, on y trouve certains des vins les plus chers de l'univers connu, mais on y trouve aussi des vins savoureux et abordables.

Principaux raisins :

Le pinot noir est originaire de Bourgogne et ces vignes couvrent 34 % de la région, représentant 29 % de la production totale de vin. Ce raisin rouge s'accommode très bien des sols calcaires et argileux, ce qui contribue à sa complexité. Les vins de pinot noir de Bourgogne ont une couleur qui va de la cerise à la brique, sont légers et présentent généralement des arômes de fruits rouges et d'épices. Le gamay est un raisin rouge également cultivé en Bourgogne, mais il ne représente que 10 % des vignes.

Le chardonnay est le premier cépage des vins blancs de Bourgogne, avec 48% de l'encépagement et 68% de la production. Le chardonnay apprécie le sol marneux de la Bourgogne, qui lui confère de délicats arômes floraux, fruités et minéraux, ainsi que des saveurs corsées. L'aligoté est le deuxième cépage blanc, avec 6 % de la production. {En savoir plus sur l'ancien cépage aligoté en Bourgogne.}

La région produit un vin mousseux appelé Crémant de Bourgogne. Il peut être élaboré à partir de chardonnay, de pinot noir, de pinot gris, d'aligoté, de gamay, de sacy et de melon. Les variétés comprennent le blanc, le blanc de blancs, le blanc de noirs et le rosé.

Bonnes Mares is a highly sought-after wine producer located in the Burgundy region of France. The vineyard is situated in the Côte de Nuits area, which is known for producing some of the finest Pinot Noir wines in the world.

The history of Bonnes Mares dates back to the 16th century when the vineyard was owned by the Cistercian monks. The vineyard changed hands several times over the centuries, and it wasn't until the 20th century that it gained recognition as one of the top wine producers in Burgundy. Today, Bonnes Mares is owned by a group of investors who are committed to preserving the vineyard's rich history and producing exceptional wines.

In addition to its Pinot Noir, Bonnes Mares also produces a small amount of Chardonnay.
