Château de Bonhoste
A brief history
The Château de Bonhoste was born around 1895, when the BUISSIERE family arrived at “Bonhoste”, locality of the commune of Saint Jean de Blaignac, where the CHABERT family already resides since the end of the XVIIIth century. It is Bernard FOURNIER, grandson of Mrs BUSSIERE, which brings together in 1977 the two properties. With the help of his wife Colette, they decide to develop this family patrimony.
In 2005, their children Sylvaine and Yannick FOURNIER, 5th generation, take over the property. Yannick, after studies in viticulture and oenology deals with the technical part, Sylvaine, a graduate in economics and business management, manages marketing.
Located at the 45 ° parallel, Bordeaux enjoys a temperate climate, favorable to the vine with winters with rare frosts, wet springs, hot summers and sunny autumns.
The Château de Bonhoste is located on a hillside facing Saint-Émilion, overlooking the Dordogne valley.
