'This over-achieving estate is one of the most consistent performers in Pomerol. Always a well-made, fleshy, succulent, hedonistic wine' Robert Parker
Owned by the Bourotte family since 1926 and popular since Napoleonic times, Chateau Bonalgue is a 9.5 ha property on gravel and sand soils in Pomerol, planted with 95% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc. Following manual harvest the wines are fermented in temperature controlled vats prior to an 18 month elevage in barrel of which 50% are new each year.
