As the personal home estate of world-renowned winemaker Michel Rolland, Château Fontenil serves as a true labor of love where innovative Right Bank winemaking techniques are brought to life. Aged for 18 months in fine French oak, this 2014 vintage offers a beautifully polished balance of ripe dark berries, warm cocoa, and gentle baking spices. Supple and full on the palate, it delivers a classic Bordeaux experience that feels both luxurious and wonderfully approachable. It is the perfect bottle to uncork for a special dinner or share among friends.
