Conditions météorologiques

2022 was a particularly atypical year due to extreme weather conditions. In 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.

Vendanges

29 August - 26 September 2022

Dégustation

A pretty pale yellow colour with green highlights.
Very fruity, the nose is pleasant and becomes even more powerful with aeration. It then reveals a delicious blend of exotic fruit notes combined with yellow peach flavours. The whole is particularly good wine.
The attack is marked by a lovely freshness. The mid-palate is nicely full-bodied. The exotic fruit and peach notes are still very present. The balance between volume and freshness is perfect. Lovely length.

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.
