Domaine Bonneau du Martray
About Domaine Bonneau du Martray
For over a century, Domaine Bonneau du Martray has chosen to focus on only the Corton Hill and produces nothing but Corton and Corton-Charlemagne Grand Crus. To date, it is reportedly the only estate in Burgundy with a Grand Cru-only portfolio.
With such a niche focus, Domaine Bonneau du Martray caught the attention of Stan Kroenke, owner of Screaming Eagle, who acquired a majority stake in the estate in 2017. Just a year later, in a bid to further improve the quality of its wines by focusing on smaller acreage, Domaine Bonneau du Martray leased around 2.9 hectares of its Chardonnay vines to the legendary Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, further testament to the pedigree of its vines and commitment towards continuous improvement.

(1x75cl) 2020Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (94-97)
The analysis looks perfectly balanced at 13.35% alcohol and pH 3.15. This has been racked but not sulphured since the harvest. Primrose colour, the nose shows a little heaviness and needs freshening up soon with a sulphur adjustment. The nose suggests yellow fruit and a certain thickness of texture. Ripe to baked apple notes. The palate however shows wonderful potential with excellent grip due in part to a little youthful bitterness. Still the apple theme but more important to consider the intensity and the structure. Also the length is what it should be. I have to be cautious given the current stage of development.

There is a hint of exoticism to the cool and admirably pure citrus, pear and green apple suffused nose that is presently trimmed in a noticeable, if very slight, touch of reduction. The rich and extremely fresh middle weight plus flavors possess an impressive amount of dry extract as well as ample mineral influence on the austere and ultra-pure finish that seems to go on and on. This powerful and impeccably well-balanced effort is still very much on the way up and will need another 5 to 7 years before it reaches its full apogee. Tasted twice recently with consistent notes.HK$39,395.00
