Pierre-Yves Perrachon tends to his Chardonnay with the same care he gives his Gamay: the vines have been cultivated using sustainable farming practices since 1999 and thrive best in clay-loam soils. A rare wine within the appellation (white Beaujolais— —accounts for less than 1% of Beaujolais production), it is perfectly in tune with the times, delightfully flavorful, lively, and fresh, with a spicy nose and aromas of white flowers. Enjoy it now!

About the estate:
Located on the border between Burgundy and Beaujolais, this château takes its name from Sieur Bonnet, a councilman of the city of Mâcon, who had a manor house built there in 1630, where Lamartine later stayed. Acquired by the Perrachon family in 1973, the estate comprises 22 hectares of vineyards. Pierre-Yves Perrachon, who has led the estate since 1988, was joined in 2013 by his daughter Charlotte, an oenologist. He has also partnered with a winemaker from the Mâconnais region to expand his operations through a wine merchant firm, Bourgogne Sélect.
