Nade?ge and Sylvain Fontan are the fourth generation to take care of the family’s estate in Gascogne, South-West France. Located in the towns of Noulens and Vic-Fezensac, the 80 hectares of Fontan vineyards benefit from the different terroirs to produce quality grapes. Noulens has clay soils with sand and silt elements while Vic-Fezenac is located on steep slopes of clay and limestone.

Winemaking Techniques

Once harvested, the varietal grapes are de-stalked, and undergo skin on maceration for 8-12 hours. Grapes then go through a pnuematic press before fermentation at 18°C for 12- 18 days. When completed, the varietals are blended and stabilised. To maintain optimum freshness, the wine is kept in vats at 8°C until bottling occurs.
