    Neal Martin,

    The 2022 Bonalgue is the first vintage to include around 7% of Cabernet Franc that was planted in 2019. This has a perfumed bouquet with potpourri influencing the well-defined black fruit having lost the <em>soupçon</em> of prune that I picked up from barrel. The palate is well balanced, with neatly integrated 40% oak. It has smooth tannins and a quite elegant style, particularly toward the saline finish. This is a classy Bonalgue that will be difficult to resist in its flush of youth.

    The 2022 Bonalgue has a deep garnet-purple color. Notes of prunes, fruitcake, and baked cherries leap from the glass, leading to hints of incense and dusty soil, plus a waft of bay leaves. The medium to full-bodied palate has muscular flavors of black fruit preserves, with a chewy texture and a firm finish.
