2021 Chteau Bonnelire Chinon Ros “Rive Gauche”, Loire Valley, France

This wine comes from the alluvial soils on the left bank of the Vienne river composed of sand and gravel. The freshness of the Cabernet Franc planted in these soils creates a fresh aromatic ros.

ABOUT THIS PRODUCER

Thanks to the will of 2 generations, the Chteau de la Bonnelire has regained its nobility and its original vocation, the vine and the wine. In 1976, Pierre Plouzeau bought this family property, renovated the Chteau and replanted the disappeared vineyard.In 1989, a modern winery was born as well as a Chinon Chteau de la Bonnelire wine. His son, Marc, takes over this vineyard in 1999, continues to develop it, passes it entirely in organic and perfects the cellar. Today, it is a must-see vineyard in Chinon.
