Château Bonnet Rosé
With its freshness and notes of currant and raspberry from a short maceration before pressing, it is the wine of all meals. Just fresh, with surprising length, it is a real value.
Wine style
Fresh and Fruity
Grape blend
Merlot 50% / Cabernet Sauvignon 50%
Weather
2018 was one of the warmest years since 1900, featuring above-average temperatures, the second hottest summer to date, and abundant sunshine… Heavy rainfall in the first half of the year was followed by persistent, near-record drought conditions in September.
Tasting Comment
Appearance
Pale-pink colour with brilliant, slightly bluish highlights.
Nose
After gently swirling in the glass, this wine, made from a 50/50 blend of Merlot (harvested early) and Cabernet Sauvignon, unveils a very pleasant bouquet of red fruit aromas and citrus fruit overtones.
Mouth
This wine is very round, smooth, and fruity, much to the delight of the taste buds. The palate is crisp and appetising with a long, lively, and well-defined aftertaste. A very well-made wine ideally served with a mixed salad, tajine, or chicken. Perfect for a summer's evening!
