Château de Bonnezeaux is an estate in the Loire Valley focused on Bonnezeaux Chenin Blanc. Notes indicate the domaine was revived in 2012 by Guyonne Saclier de la Bâtie, with leadership passing in 2019 to Léa Meslet and Pierre Boisseaux, alongside Marc Angeli in winemaking. The estate is described as farmed organically and biodynamically, with hand-worked vineyards, hand-harvested fruit, indigenous-yeast fermentations, no temperature control, no fining or filtration, and only minimal sulfites at bottling. Some notes also describe Château de Bonnezeaux as part of the larger Château de Fesles estate, owned by Les Grands Chais de France, so ownership details appear conflicting in the sources.
