Domaine Henri Bonneau Réserve des Célestins 2003

Wild herbs, iron and dark cherry explode from the glass with remarkable intensity. This shows Bonneau's signature rusticity - dense, brooding fruit wrapped in formidable structure. Orange peel and cracked pepper add complexity to the massive palate. The tannins remain fierce and unyielding. Built for decades of cellaring through 2035.
