Château de Bonnezeaux La Montagne 2023 is a Chenin Blanc from the Loire Valley. Revived in recent years by Guyonne Saclier de la Bâtie, the estate utilises biodynamic practices across its 3ha of vineyards, restoring abandoned plots with a focus on sustainable viticulture. Hand-harvested grapes from 40- and 70-year-old vines contribute to this blend, each carefully pressed using traditional methods. This vintage showcases a balance of rich fruit and mineral depth, reflecting the distinct terroir associated with the region.
