Bonpas Cotes Du Rhone Villages Plan
Located near Avignon, at the heart of the Rhone Valley, the fortified stronghold of Bonpas, from the French “Bon passage”, has watched over the safe crossing of the Durance River along the historic route that once linked Rome with Avignon. The estate marks the gateway to the southern Côtes-du-Rhône appellations and opens its gates to the discovery of the region’s terroirs. Its sophisticated, elegant wines embody the terroirs and varietals of this famous region through their power and fruitiness.
Localisation
South of Rhone Valley vineyard on the Plan de Dieu hillside.
Tasting notes
Colour: Intense cherry red intense with deep purple highlights.
Nose: Combination of small red undergrowth fruits (strawberry, blackcurrant, raspberry) and a sweet spicy.
Mouth: A supple, round attack, the finish is redolent of black fruit associated with light spices such as cinnamon and vanilla. The supple, melting tannins give this wine fullness and body in the mouth.
Food and wine pairing
Ideal with filet of beef with Cèpes, grilled duck breast or a wide range of cheeses. Serve at 16°C.
