Château Bonnet | White
AOC Entre-deux-Mers

Conditions météorologiques
The weather in 2024 was extreme, with heavy rainfall, lack of sunshine and cool temperatures, making the fight against vine diseases particularly difficult. After a somewhat difficult flowering period with some coulure, a more favourable period in August allowed the grapes to change colour evenly, followed by a rapid harvest in September to preserve the quality of the grapes. This vintage marks a return to normal harvest dates.
Vendanges
23 September - 25 September 2024.
Dégustation
Brilliant colour, a lovely pale pink with salmon reflections and silvery highlights.
Intensely fruity and generous, the nose opens with aromas of raspberry and red berries, accompanied by delicate hints of vine peach and fresh flowers such as roses. Balanced, fresh and very pleasant.
The attack is supple, followed by a full, round mid-palate. The liveliness of the wine gives a lingering sensation of freshness, with a harmonious, persistent finish. A well-balanced rosé, both fresh and generous, perfect for relaxing moments or summer meals. A successful vintage to be savoured without delay.

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.
