Château Bonnet Red 2019

Château Bonnet | Red

Présentation

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.

Dégustation

Brilliant colour, nice cherry red with some garnet highlights.
Expressive, the nose open out notes of ripe red fruits (raspberry, redcurrant), very tasty, with some toasted notes.
Pleasant, very supple and silky on the palate. This Château Bonnet 2019 is well balanced and accessible for immediate tasting. There are gourmet notes of fresh red fruit (Morello cherry), but also dried fruit; all of this is associated with aromas of mocha and chocolate. Tannins are present, but round and pleasant. The finish is marked by slightly more woody notes.

Château Bonnet

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.
