Chateau Fontanes Les Traverses de Fontanes Blanc 2022

Blend: 40% Rolle, 40% Chenin Blanc, and 20% Clairette.

Château Fontanès Les Traverses Blanc 2022 is a unique white blend of Chenin Blanc, Rolle (Vermentino), and Clairette, a combination not often seen. Created by vigneron Cyriaque Rozier, this wine reflects his meticulous approach and expertise. The grapes are grown in the cooler Pic Saint Loup region of Languedoc, where the altitude and cooling winds from the Cévennes Mountains balance the Mediterranean climate, helping preserve the freshness and acidity of the Chenin Blanc. The result is a wine that marries Chenin’s bright acidity with Rolle’s floral aromatics. Crisp, clean, and melon-forward with a refreshing profile, it is an ideal choice for an everyday white. The wine is biodynamically farmed on limestone soils. This is perfect for those seeking a vibrant, approachable wine with a touch of complexity.
