Since 1318, the Chartreuse de Bonpas has looked down from its fortified heights over the River Durance. The first edifice of the southern Côtes du Rhône, it welcomes visitors to discover this terroir of red stones.
Every Bonpas wine tells the story of a chapter in the history of this magnificent property in Caumont-sur-Durance. They are mainly produced with Grenache Noir, cultivated on these amazing pebbles, resulting in their exceptional fruity character and smooth tannins.
Starred chef Christian Peyre paired La Réserve de la Croix de Bonpas 2015 with pan-fried red mullet fillets with green asparagus, squid and black olive ravioli with a beetroot jus. This is a wonderful encounter between a full-bodied Côtes-du-Rhône with subtle hints of sun-ripened red fruit, and the peppery notes of southern cuisine.
