Technical datasheet

Presentation

Thanks to expressive fruit – but without excessive concentration – Château Bonnet's red wine is unquestionably charming. In fact, it is a benchmark in Bordeaux.The wine is best enjoyed on the young side, although the quality tannin ensures good ageing for several year.

The wine

Varietal

Cabernet sauvignon : 50%

Merlot : 50%

Alcohol content

13,5% vol.

Weather conditions

2022 was a particularly atypical year due to extreme weather conditions. ln addition to a very early frost in the spring, which affected the vineyard just as the vines were starting to bud, there was a long period of exceptional drought from May until the end of September. The result was low yields and a perfect state of health at harvest time throughout the vineyard.

Harvest

16 September - 10 October 2022

Tasting

Deep, brilliant cherry-red colour.
Intense and particularly seductive, the nose is dominated by aromas of fresh red fruit such as strawberry, redcurrant and raspberry.
The attack is supple and slightly sweet, quickly giving way to a generous, round body. The mid-palate is full-bodied and delicious. The tannins are fine and silky, with an elegant finish.
This is a harmonious, well-balanced wine with a supple texture and pleasant freshness. It is easy to drink.

Château Bonnet

The cradle of Vignobles André Lurton, Château Bonnet is first and foremost a family home where tradition and ecological commitment come together in harmony. Nestled in the heart of the Entre-deux-Mers region, the estate promotes biodiversity with beehives, a henhouse, flowering fallows and orchards, while adopting biocontrol viticultural practices for some of its plots. Its fresh, expressive dry white wines reveal delicate notes of citrus and exotic fruit, perfect for accompanying seafood and oysters from the Bay of Arcachon. Its well-balanced red wines, with supple tannins, express all the richness and deliciousness of the fruit.
