Chateau de Bonnezeaux VdF 'Frimas' 2019

Chateau de Bonnezeaux owns a history reaching back to the early 19th century, part of Guyonne Saclier de la Bâtie's ancestral history. For decades the vineyard property was leased out and eventually abandoned, until Guyonne was installed as winemaker in 2012. By 2016, she'd released her first vintage from replanted vineyards, four hectares of organic, goblet-trained Chenin Blanc. With a dense mineral backbone and a precise, dry complexity this is date night in a bottle when served with oysters.
