Château de Bonhoste Bordeaux Blanc

The Chateau de Bonhoste is located six miles from the famous St. Emillion, on the Right Bank of the Gironde River. The current estate was created in 1977 when Bernard Fournier purchased this 11th century Chateau and it's 44 hectares of vineyards. Today the winemaking role has been passed on to Bernard's son Yannick, while his sister Sylvaine works the vines with her mother Colette. Making blends of the noble varieties in Bordeaux using traditional methods, their Bordeaux Blanc Sec is a blend of 60% Sauvignon Blanc, 30% Semillon and 10% Muscadelle. The natural texture of the Semillon mingles with the vibrant acidity of the Sauvignon Blanc, making a fun and refreshing white Bordeau
