Elegance and finesse harmoniously blend in the Palette Rosé from Chateau Henri Bonnaud, a wine that embodies one of the most refined expressions of Provence. This rosé is primarily composed of Grenache and Mourvèdre grapes, with a touch of Cinsault, all cultivated in accordance with strict organic farming standards.

The color is a delicate pale pink, typical of Provençal rosés. On the nose, the wine offers a complex and seductive bouquet with notes of small red fruits, a light citrus hue, and a delicate rose fragrance. The tasting reveals a balanced palate with impeccable freshness and subtle minerality reflecting the unique terroir of Palette. Its well-defined structure and persistent length make it an ideal companion for light dishes such as summer salads, fish-based courses, or simply as an aperitif.

The limited production and attention to detail make the Palette Rosé from Chateau Henri Bonnaud a preferred choice for lovers of high-quality rosé wines.

Winery history
Stéphane Spitzglous, raised in the family that owned the land, produced his first vintage in 2004 and named the estate after his grandfather, Henri Bonnaud. In the 2000s the estate developed a flagship cuvée line, and from the early 2010s began converting to organic farming, a process completed with the first organic vinifications and vintages in the early years of the following decade.
Production philosophy
Respect for the land and protection of biodiversity: organic practices in the vineyard, no use of chemical fertilizers or herbicides, hand-harvesting for certain cuvées and winemaking intended to express the local terroir.
Terroir and vineyards
The estate is located in the commune of Le Tholonet, about 6 km southeast of Aix‑en‑Provence, with vineyards facing the Montagne Sainte‑Victoire. The most representative soils are calcareous deposits known as “Langesse”; some parcels lie in a natural amphitheatre that provides a microclimate sheltered from the mistral.
