Presentation
"Les Jardins de Bonnet" is a wine that reflects all the expertise of Vignobles André Lurton, making it one of the most trusted Bordeaux wines. This well-balanced, generous cuvée embodies both richness and finesse, with great depth and a touch of charm. Partially matured in French oak barrels, it reveals pleasant aromas of black fruit and chocolate, while offering a supple, smooth texture. Easy to drink when young, this wine can also evolve harmoniously over time, retaining all its character.
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.

Tasting
A deep, intense purple colour that immediately catches the eye.
On the nose, rich aromas of ripe black fruit blend harmoniously with subtle notes of vanilla and cocoa, with a hint of spice adding complexity and delicacy.
On the palate, the attack is supple and silky, developing into a full-bodied, well-structured mid-palate. The fine, well-coated tannins add depth without ever weighing the wine down. The finish, with an elegant hint of vanilla, prolongs the sensation of delicacy and balance. A refined wine where richness and sweetness meet in perfect harmony.
