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 country manor built here 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 enologist. He has also partnered with a winemaker from the Mâconnais region to complement his operations with a wine merchant firm, Bourgogne Sélect.

Review by Mr. ETIENNE D. Published on 12/12/2019

After being allowed to breathe for a while, this is a refined and subtle wine; it’s light and lacks a bit of length, but leaves a very pleasant impression.
