The 2017 Domaine Denis Mortet Bonnes Mares, a Pinot Noir, hails from the renowned Bonnes Mares sub-appellation within the Chambolle Musigny area of the Cote de Nuits in Burgundy, France. This wine is produced by Domaine Denis Mortet and comes with a classic cork closure, containing 13.5% alcohol.

The wine has received high praise from several respected wine critics, with the Decanter giving it a remarkable score of 96. Describing this wine, Decanter noted, "This remarkable 0.35ha parcel used to belong to Domaine Newman but is now an established part of the Mortet range. All located on white soils on the larger Chambolle-side of Bonnes Mares, this is showing its 70% new wood at the moment but has the structure and concentration to soak it up. It's sappy, savoury and fine, with a palate-pleasing red fruit sweetness and underlying minerality."

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate also rated this wine highly, with a score of 94. They noted, "The 2017 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru is very pretty, wafting from the glass with notes of rose petal, blood orange, wild berries and savory bass notes. On the palate, it’s medium to full-bodied, satiny and fine-boned, with chalky structuring tannins, juicy acids and a vibrant core of fruit. The style here is exquisite.”

Burghound echoed this sentiment, also awarding the wine a score of 94 and adding, "A deft application of oak easily allows the earthy aromas of plum, red and dark berries and game to be appreciated. Once again there is very good volume to the powerful and solidly concentrated middle weight plus flavors that culminate in a refreshing and chalky finish that is slightly firmer as well as a bit longer too."

Jasper Morris gave the highest score of 97, highlighting the wine's "Fine full mid purple" color and "Gorgeous rich fruit leavened by some whole bunch effect. Dark raspberry fruit. Spicy notes, and not picked too late. The fruit swells beautifully on the palate, though still in the fine-boned style of the vintage. This has a most beautiful finish which really stretches the fruit out beyond the light tannins."

Wine Spectator and Vinous both awarded the wine a score of 93, with both noting the presence of new oak and expressing a desire for a bit more depth as the wine evolves. Wine Spectator observed, "The new wood is quite vocal on the nose and slightly occludes the fruit underneath," while Vinous stated, "Needs time to develop its personality."

In summary, the 2017 Domaine Denis Mortet Bonnes Mares is a well-regarded Pinot Noir that showcases a balance of rich fruit, fine-boned structure, and the potential for further development.
