Who makes it

Domaine Bruno Clair is based in Marsannay-la-Côte on the Côte d'Or and has 24 hectares. The domaine acquired Corton-Charlemagne in 1993 and Petite Chapelle in 1996. Its named wines include Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru and Chambolle-Musigny Les Charmes Premier Cru, placing two Burgundy vineyard levels within the same range.

Where it grows

The home address is Marsannay-la-Côte on the Côte d'Or. The wines also carry Côte de Nuits names, including Bonnes-Mares, Chambertin Clos de Bèze, Chambolle-Musigny and Vosne-Romanée. Burgundy labels use Grand Cru for a top vineyard tier and Premier Cru for a classified site within a village appellation. Marsannay Les Longeroies and Savigny les Beaune Premier Cru La Dominode add further named places to the red range.

What they make

Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru and Chambertin Clos de Bèze Grand Cru occupy the Grand Cru level. Chambolle-Musigny Les Charmes and Savigny les Beaune Premier Cru La Dominode are Premier Cru wines, while Vosne-Romanée Les Champs Perdrix and Marsannay Les Longeroies add further named bottlings.

Bonnes-Mares matures for 18 to 20 months in oak barrels with approximately 45% new oak. Its minimum cellaring potential is 10 years.
