The Merlot gives body and roundness, the Cabernet Sauvignon richness and tannin structure, while the Cabernet Franc will bring finesse. A well balanced red wine.

Located in Saint-Émilion, Bordeaux Chateau de Bonhoste is operated and owned by Sylvaine and Yannick Fournier. They possess two vineyards - one in Bordeaux on the edge of the Entre-deux-Mers and the other in Bergerac.
The business was formed in 1895, when the Buissiere family created Château de Bonhoste and in 1977, Bernard Fournier, grandson of Mrs Bussiere brought the two vineyards, the 44 hectare Bonhoste and the 22 hectare Mouilere, together.
We particularly recommend the red and whites of Chateau de Bonhoste from the Bordeaux vineyard - both command excellent value.
