The Bonalgue 1989 is a red wine originating from the Pomerol region of Bordeaux, primarily composed of Merlot, supplemented by a modest proportion of Cabernet Franc. The 1989 vintage experienced exceptional weather, with a notably warm summer, leading to a high level of fruit ripeness. This wine displays characteristics typical of a mature Pomerol, featuring structured tannins and a profile of blackberry fruit with earthy undertones. Château Bonalgue, the estate behind this wine, cultivates 9.41 hectares of vineyards, reflecting the region`s unique terroir, which includes iron-rich subsoil.

Robert Parker
The 1989 is not far behind the 1982. Deep ruby/purple, with an obvious yet enticing bouquet of sweet, plump blackberries, this lush, deceptively easy, generously endowed wine goes down the throat far too easily for its 13% plus alcohol content. It will not be long-lived. Anticipated maturity. Now-1996. Tasted four times. Consistent notes. - Robert M. Parker, Jr.
