Château Bonnet White
Very Sauvignon, this wine of André Lurton at an affordable price, is an example of "everyday wine": succulent aromas of pear and tropical fruit, nervous and expressive on the palate, clean finish and well-defined . Intelligent, vibrant easy to drink yet.
Wine style
Fresh and Fruity
Grape blend
Sauvignon blanc 75% / Sémillon 20% / Muscadelle 5%
Weather
2019 was marked by a fairly mild winter, resulting in early bud break. Spring rainfall was scarce and drought conditions set in in early summer. Rainfall in August provided a welcome relief for winegrowers.
Tasting Comment
Appearance
Brilliant clear pale yellow colour with green highlights.
Nose
Starts out powerful on the nose, going on to reveal delicate aromas of white fruit, pear and citrus.
Mouth
Starts out beautifully straightforward on the palate, becoming round and full-bodied mid-palate. Pleasantly fresh on the finish, contributing a lovely long aftertaste. A well-balanced wine with delicious aromas of white fruit following through to the palate. This 2019 Bonnet Blanc is particularly enjoyable with oysters, crab or marinated mussels.
