Vines have been grown at Fontenille since the 13th century and a pilgrimage route, protected by UNESCO, runs through the vineyards to the neighbouring Abbaye de la Sauve Majeure, whose monks tended the vines for hundreds of years. The wines represent excellent value, with considerably more weight, interest and purity of fruit than other examples at this price.

- Light gold in colour with bright precise aromas of citrus fruit and white peaches. Full-bodied with crisp acidity and a moreish, white pepper finish.
- 50% Sauvignon Blanc, 20% Sauvignon Gris, 20% Sémillon, 10% Muscadelle. All vinified separately and then blended to perfection.
- The free-draining soils of the Fontenille vineyards and high winds help maintain grape health and contribute to the pure fruit evident in this white wine.

Château Montrose
- £118
A dense and deep colour, the wine has an intense and complex, slightly saline nose which reveals notes of blackcurrant and very ripe fruit with airing. From a powerful attack on highly refined, velvet tannins, the smooth and dense mid-palate offers attractive and expressive flavours, leading into a long and elegant finish. An incredibly precise wine, it sets a benchmark for Château Montrose.
