Château Bonalgue is a small estate of just over 6ha in Pomerol owned by the Bourotte family, who also own Clos du Clocher. The 2015 is a classic Right Bank blend of 90% Merlot with 10% and offers wonderful notes of mulberry, cherry, cinnamon and dried flowers. One of the best releases from the estate in recent years.

Tasted from bottle, the 2015 Bonalgue comes across a bit awkward, with green notes and burly tannins that dominate the wine's balance. Today, the 2015 is quite aggressive and clearly a work in progress.Antonio Galloni1st February 2018

The 2015 Bonalgue is now 100% Merlot since proprietor Jean-Baptiste Bourotte pulled up his Cabernet vines. It has a seductive bouquet, understated at first but pure, gradually gaining complexity with sage and white pepper scents. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, fleshy on the entry, feminine and elegant, fanning out to a really poised and elegant finish. This is one of the best Bonalgue releases in recent years.
