Proprietary Blend · Southern Rhone
99RP points from Robert Parker.
“1989 Henri Bonneau Reserve des Celestins CDP - 99 Pts! Inching closer and closer to the celestial 1990 is the 1989. This cuvee was fabulous when tasted in Bonneau's cellars but it closed down after bottling. Possibly even more powerful and tannic than the 1990 as well as more backward the 1989 looks to be a great classic. It is a Reserve des Celestins to forget for another 3-8 years. It possesses all the characteristics of the 1990 but everything is packed into a more linear personality. Amazing stuff! RP For the ultimate in Rhone and CDP!!”

Henri Bonneau
1989 Proprietary Blend, Southern RhoneHenri Bonneau was a critically acclaimed producer of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. He was the 12th generation winemaker in his family, which has an extensive history in the southern Rhône. He first started working in the vineyards in the 1950s, though due to the popularity, value and scarcity of his wines, early vintages are virtually non-existent. Bonneau's last vintage was 2015, and he passed away in 2016.
The estate consists of 6 hectares (15 acres) of estate vineyards in various Châteauneuf-du-Pape sites, including the esteemed La Crau plot. There are three cuvées – a simple Châteauneuf-du-Pape, the Cuvée Marie Beurrier and the top-tier Réserve des Célistins, rounded out with the Les Rouliers Vin de Table. The high quality of the 1990 and 1998 vintages also led Bonneau to make a Cuvée Speciale.
Henri Bonneau's vineyards are planted with around 90 percent Grenache. The farm
ing practices specifically produce low yields and the fruit is harvested relatively late for the region. The winemaking process avoids destemming, except in poor vintages, and fermentation takes place in cement vats. The wines are then aged in large, old barrels.Henri Bonneau's wines are known for their lengthy aging potential.
