About wine:
Very low yields certainly explain the full-bodied and vigorous character of this Chénas. The tannins are still very firm and will require a little patience to gain roundness. However, the wine is not lacking in richness, with its charming aromas of ripe black fruits.
About the estate:
On the border between Burgundy and Beaujolais, this château takes its name from Sieur Bonnet, alderman of the town of Mâcon, who built a manor house there in 1630, where Lamartine later stayed. Acquired by the Perrachon family in 1973, the estate has 22 hectares of vineyards. Pierre-Yves Perrachon, who has been at the helm since 1988, was joined in 2013 by his daughter Charlotte, an oenologist. He has also partnered with a winegrower from the Mâconnais region to complement his estate with a wine merchant business, Bourgogne Sélect.

About wine:
It may be a light red, but it reveals sparkling blackberry notes and well-balanced acidity. The slightly sappy finish calls for a nice picnic. Drink now.
