Château Bonnet Cuvée Eden Red
Château Bonnet is expanding its range and launching Eden: a new wine from plots cultivated using Biocontrol (a set of plant protection methods based on the use of natural method). From the vine to the cellar, these natural methods are respected: indigenous yeasts for fermentation, without sulphite... A brilliant and gourmet wine close to nature, quite simply!
Wine style

Weather
2021 was marked by very unstable weather: heavy rainfall in the spring, a frost episode in April causing major damage... But warm days and cool nights followed one another from mid-August onwards, ensuring the success of the vintage.
Tasting Comment
Appearance
Colour, good depth, and a lovely cherry red, with some violet highlights.
Nose
The nose is marked by notes of peony, crisp fruit (cherry), enhanced by a hint of peppery notes.
Mouth
The attack is frank. There is a very nice volume in the middle of the mouth. The tannic structure is average; the tannins are well blended. The red fruits (cherry), previously perceived on the nose, are found here in the mouth. It is a greedy, digestible wine, very easy to drink. It will be a pleasure to drink as an aperitif, with a roasted Camembert cheese, a gizzard or lentil salad.
