Description
CHÂTEAU BONNET is the family home where the story of the André Lurton family started. It is one of the leading brand of the Entre-Deux-Mers and one of the most beautiful regions of the Bordeaux countryside. This area features limestone plateaus which are ideal for growing balanced and concentrated grapes. All wines feature Eco-designed packaging, lightweight bottles & eco-paper. The estate promotes biodiversity with the creation of an eco-garden, installation of beehives, new crops (vegetables, etc.) and are committed sustainable farming.
They have received a HEV 3 global environmental certification, which is the highest level possible.
Tasting notes
Elegant pale yellow color, with light silver reflections. A beautiful intensity, the nose is marked by a mix of exotic fruit notes (mango, passion fruit) and citrus (grapefruit, lemon). There is a nice intensity in the mouth. The balance is good between roundness, freshness and a nice finish. Great as an aperitif, but also with a seafood platter, avocado with shrimp or grilled fish.
