The Cuvée Perpetuelle Non Dosé from Bonnet-Ponson is a bright golden yellow wine with the finest perlage and aromas of citrus fruits, yellow stone fruits and herbs. It is characterised by its great harmony and balance, with the finely cisilated acid structure and minerality providing complexity. This wine is an excellent accompaniment to dishes such as smash burgers, char cooked in beeswax or a red lentil pan with caramelised butternut squash.

Bright golden yellow with orange and light reflexes, finest perlage, mousseux very persistent

Nose

The Cuvée Perpetuelle Non Dosé from Bonnet-Ponson is developing into a real classic and consistently high quality. On the nose, it exudes plenty of citrus notes, but in a pleasantly unusual way. Clementines and orange zest, some grapefruit juice and blood orange. The tangerine skin combines this in a fresh as well as characterfully tart way. Behind it, there is pear and a hint of ripe apple. Fresh and dried herbs can be ideally described in the form of parsley, savory, marjoram and a little lemon balm. Delicately, a hint of cold smoke can be detected. Quietly and shyly, it also hints at maritime traces as well as a tendency towards oyster shell. The stony and chalky notes are still almost completely hidden. With time in the glass, the fruit develops very much in the direction of yellow stone fruits. Mirabelle and apricot as well as a hint of tarte tatin are clearly perceptible.

Palate

It reveals its zero dosage character not through harshness or clashing minerality, but through great harmony and balance. It simply suits it very, very well to have fewer grams on the hip. The fruit is thus clearly shown to advantage without getting too full. The finely chiselled acid structure runs through it like a red thread. On the palate and especially in the aftertaste, the fruit is very similar to the last impressions. The colour tends to be yellow. It plays between fruit, tart as well as acid accents. The stone fruit now clearly dominates the citrus notes. In itself, it is very coherent with skilful edges and corners. Its mineral base keeps it compactly together.
