Wine Spectator
Complex, fragrant aromas of sandalwood, jasmine and black cherry, with flavors to match, converge in this tightly grained, muscular red. Detailed and pure, showing balance and energy. The lingering finish promises the full potential, leading to a long sweet fruit and mineral aftertaste. Best from 2016 through 2036.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Roumier’s 2009 Bonnes-Mares is without question one of the wines of the vintage. Firm yet beautifully integrated tannins provide the backdrop for the highly nuanced, expressive aromas and flavors that emerge from the glass. All the elements are in the right place in this extraordinary, moving wine. At times the Bonnes-Mares comes across as very powerful, at other times it is quite sensual. In other words, it is pure magic in the glass. Burgundy fans will flock to the Musigny because of its rarity but there is a very real possibility that the Bonnes-Mares will outshine it over time. Anticipated maturity: 2019-2039. (AG) 98+

Christophe Roumier produced some of my absolute favorite wines in this ripe and buxom vintage, and where many 2009s have shown more overtly roasted qualities on both the nose and palate with a few years of bottle age, this has not been the case with the 2009 Roumier Bonnes-Mares, which is absolutely stellar. The bouquet soars from the glass in a very uncharacteristically expressive (for young Bonnes-Mares!) blend of red and black cherries, cocoa, venison, a beautifully complex base of soil, blood orange and a floral topnote redolent of peonies. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and sappy at the core, with ripe tannins, lovely focus and grip and a very, very long, opulent and promising finish. This may one day close down a bit, but at the present time, it remains wide open and is really a delicious young bottle of Burgundy.

This is also remarkably fresh with very ripe but not over ripe aromas of cassis, spice, stone and raspberry liqueur. There is a palpable sense of energy running through the rich, powerful and brooding broad-shouldered flavors that benefit from a huge dollop of dry extract that pushes the very firm tannic spine to the background on the explosive and youthfully austere finish that possesses genuinely outstanding length. I very much like the balance here and this should age effortlessly for decades.
