"A real treat!"

The highest point in the Saint-Amour appellation, the Côte de Besset reaches an elevation of 380 meters, imparting aromas of wild strawberries and raspberries. With a fruity, supple, and elegant palate, it pairs well with pork cheek stew in red wine or barbecue-grilled pork tenderloins.

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.
