The estate and the wine |
|
|
Formerly owned by the famous pastry chef Gaston Lenôtre, Château de Fesles is a jewel of a chateau set in the heart of Anjou, near the village of Bonnezeaux. Relaunched by its new owners, the vineyards currently produce a fine range of wines and showcase the beauty of the Chenin and Cabernet Franc grape varieties, through their meticulous selection work. The whites, in particular, possess an energy and a succulent character typical of the AOC wines from the Loire which are a treat whatever the drinking occasion. |
|
| | |
|
Lemon, white flowers, acacia honey: the Anjou white 2016 releases deliciously intense aromas over a fresh, thirst-quenching, fleshy structure. A perfect balance of fat and tension, this wine will be great for aperitif drinking, with tapas, raw fish or cheese pastry puffs. This delectable wine brings you all the freshness of the Loire Valley! |
