Grand Cru Classé goes BIO! Alain Moueix was the first top winemaker in Saint-Émilion to find the courage and openly commit to organic farming. Fonroque has been organically certified since 2006, and biodynamically certified by Biodyvin since 2008. Alain is the current president of the Biodynamic Viticulture Association.
Côte de Fonroque is Château Fonroque's second wine. The aromatic core of the 2017 is black pepper, cedar wood, and wild tomato. This cuvee has luscious blackberries and cranberries on the palate, fine-grained tannin, and a lot of freshness.
