The nose opens with clean aromas of hazelnut, white flowers and blackcurrant. The palate is rich and well-balanced, with a delicate and velvety texture followed by notes of fresh licorice on the finish.

This Pouilly-Fumé is produced from a large parcel located in the Congy region. The vines are planted in Kimmeridgian limestone soils, made up of fossilized shellfish dating back to the quaternary era. This unique soil profile brings out fruity aromas in the finished wine.

Wine Specator (90 Points):
"Supple and rich, this glides along, offering yellow plum, fleshy melon and lychee notes flecked with dried thyme. Shows restraint and quickness, with every element well-integrated in harmony. Solid and beautifully textured. Drink now through 2025."

James Suckling (90 Points):
"A friendly, fruity and playful 100% sauvignon blanc with green apples, dried pears and fresh herbs on the nose. Medium-bodied with fresh acidity and a fruit-driven character. Drink now.”

Wine Enthusiast (90 Points):
"This wine opens with lilac, peach, crushed stones, papaya and quince blossom. A mouthwatering palate of orchard fruit including golden apple is lifted by energetic acidity that races to an orange-citrus-infused finish. Serve with poultry, seafood and roasted cauliflower."

The Bonnard estate is located in the Saint Andelain district, less than two miles from the renowned town of Pouilly sur Loire. The estate was purchased in 1951 by the great-grandfather of the current owner and winemaker, Christophe Bonnard. Throughout the years the Domaine's production has evolved from livestock and cereal grains to grape growing, though vines have been planted on the estate since 1989.
