drothamer1 reviewed Château Bonnet Bordeaux Rouge 2001 on April 28, 2005

It tastes like Bordeaux at a fraction of the price one has to pay for any of the classified growths. This would be a good candidate for a house red. The nose is earthy, the taste is fruity up front and spicy towards the finish.

A nice black cherry aroma, a wonderful dark fruit up front and the finish is long and interesting. A great Cabernet for the price.

I am not much of a white wine drinker, but have finally realized that red wine does not go well with spicy Mexican food, so I decided to give this one a try with some carry-out Mexican. All I can say is AWESOME. White wine does serve a purpose and this paticular Chardonnay was very good juice for the price. Good fruity bouquet, light and vibrant on the palate.

A nice red color, although a bit on the lighter side for a Merlot. A pleasing cherry vanilla bouquet. A bit vegetal on the palate, although it had a good mouthfeel with solid tannins and a nice finish for a wine in this price range.
