Château Bonnet Cuvée Eden Red 2022

Presentation

Presentation
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!
The vintage
2022 was a particularly atypical year due to extreme weather conditions. ln addition to a very early frost in the spring, which affected the vineyard just as the vines were starting to bud, there was a long period of exceptional drought from May until the end of September. The result was low yields and a perfect state of health at harvest time throughout the vineyard.,.
