Bonnaire Cramant 2004

Cramant is known for its elegant expression of the Côte des Blancs. In Bonnaire’s 2004 vintage, buttery toffee notes sit alongside the village’s crisp, chalky character. We received a small allocation of this wine.

House Profile

The house was founded in 1932 and is now run by the fourth generation, Jean-Etienne and Jean-Emmanuel, who work with a large chunk of vineyards mainly in the brilliant village of Cramant. They also have vines in Chouilly, Oiry, Bergeres les Vertus and Cuis. They are HVE certified and use malolactic throughout their wines and some oak in Cuvée Variance. Their wines show a wonderful creamy side to the village; round, opulent and moreish with a nicely poised zesty edge.
