No, this is absolutely not a bon hiver. Justin Vernon's (aka Bon Iver) solo album For Emma, Forever Ago is all but a happy and good winter. But stop! this is meant in a good sense. Sometimes a sad song can cheer you up, even though it sounds kind of paradoxical. I like this album, or let's say I like the songs. Because I must say that listening to the whole album can make you a bit sleepy - it's just too much of the slow, sad music. Each song in itself is really well written and you can really feel the sadness of Justin as he sat in his forest cottage one cold and lonely winter and recorded the album completely by himself. It makes sense that he wants to call himself Bon Iver and not good winter.
