"Fifteen months of ageing have helped to deliver a full, intense cuvée, with solid density on the palate, carried by well-established tannins and expressing fine aromatic nuances dominated by pepper and black fruit. A wine of character, built to last". (Le Guide Hachette 2026)

About the wine:
The domaine operates 60-year-old vines on a 3-hectare site in Juliénas. The grapes were partly destemmed (30%) and the wine matured for a long time in vats. Fifteen months of ageing helped deliver a full, intense cuvée, with solid density on the palate, supported by well-established tannins and expressing fine aromatic nuances dominated by pepper and black fruit. A wine of character, built to last.
About the domain :
On the borders of Burgundy and Beaujolais, this château takes its name from Sieur Bonnet, alderman of the town of Mâcon, who built a manor house here in 1630, where Lamartine later stayed. Acquired by the Perrachon family in 1973, the estate now boasts 22 ha of vines. Pierre-Yves Perrachon, head of the estate since 1988, was joined in 2013 by his daughter Charlotte, a nologist. He has also joined forces with a winegrower from the Mâconnais region to complete his operation with a trading structure, Bourgogne Sélect.

About the wine:
Dusty and mineral, with luscious aromas of red and blue fruits and notes of crushed stone, herbs and white pepper. The medium-bodied palate is taut, juicy and nicely framed by chalky tannins. Drink now or cellar.
