Chateau La Bonnelle Saint Emilion Gr Cru 2005
Chateau La Bonnelle
Château La Bonnelle, an award winning vineyard located east of Saint Emilion, in the commune of Saint Pey d’Armens, was started in the mid 19th century by the maternal ancestors of the Sulzer family. Olivier Sulzer, the fourth generation to steward this vineyard, prides himself on the use of traditional methods of vinification and for the exceptional character of the soil. After hand harvesting, the grapes undergo a malolactic fermentation in new oak barrels for 30 days, then are oak-aged for 16 months.
