The Wine IndependentDescription
A silky, lively Listrac wine
The estate
Located in the heart of the Listrac-Médoc appellation, Château Fonréaud stands out as one of the Médoc's leading references. Owned by the Chanfreau family and classified Cru Bourgeois Supérieur, this estate seduces wine-lovers with the style of its wines, combining fruity intensity and spicy nuances. The palate is ample and generous, with good balance and remarkable ageing potential.
The vineyard
Château Fonréaud's vineyards are planted on gravel and clay soils typical of Listrac. The geographical location between the Atlantic Ocean and the Gironde estuary gives the estate a special microclimate that influences the character of the wines.
The vintage
The 2024 vintage was marked by particularly difficult weather conditions, characterized by cold and humidity. Despite these obstacles, the harvest, which took place from September 23 to October 4, produced healthy, particularly aromatic grapes.
Vinification and aging
The wine is aged in barrels, 25% of which are new.
Blend
Château Fonréaud 2024 is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (55%), Merlot (40%) and Petit Verdot (5%).
