WINE MAKING PROCESS
Château Bonnet Rosé 2022 is vinified using grapes harvested mechanically between September 2nd and 13th. The must is fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, a technique designed to preserve freshness and aromatic intensity. Following fermentation, the wine undergoes a four-month aging period in tanks, during which it rests on its fine lees. This process contributes to the wine's texture and complexity. The Lurton family's winemaking philosophy integrates traditional methods with a strong commitment to ecological practices and biodiversity.
