Flavor Profile
We’re thrilled to introduce the highly anticipated 2020 release of Château Le Bonalguet. Past vintages of this “powerful” red have been rated “a near-perfect wine” by Fabrice Sommier, a former Best Sommelier of France who works at George Blanc’s 3-Michelin-star restaurant in Lyon. It also sports a history of gold-medal acclaim from some of France’s toughest shows—including three gold medals (so far!) for the 2020.
The Sueur family crafts this Merlot-rich red at their quality-focused, 15-hectare estate. They employ rigorous selection standards in the vineyard (ensuring only the ripest grapes are picked), then treat the wine to kid-glove care in the winery. And Mother Nature gave them a serious quality advantage during 2020, “a truly exceptional, highly unique and utterly spectacular vintage,” writes The Drinks Business.
In the glass, a deep ruby color leads to ripe plum, blackberry and floral aromas and flavors. The palate is elegant and balanced, with silky-smooth tannins and a long, complex finish. If you’re lucky enough to secure a bottle (or 12), enjoy alongside beef tenderloin or mature cheeses.
Don’t wait to order—we have limited cases to share.
