The Chateau Fontane Estate
Encircled by a meander in the Vidourle river, a four kilometre drive from Sommières, the "Château de la Clotte" was built on the ruins of a roman villa. In 1432, according to historical documents, the castle belonged to Comte Pierre de Gange, but it was in XVIII century that Jean Mouton de la Clotte redesigned the property in the style we see it today.(The name of the cuvée "Mouton" is a tribute to him).
In 1792, when it caught fire, the castle was owned by Comte de Montlaur; his family kept the property until last century. In the nineties, Maryline and Philippe Pagès fell under its spell and purchased the domaine. Since that time they have been working to restore the castle to its former magnificence. . Everything is worked by gravity. The first vintage was 2000.
The Chateau Fontane Vineyard
Back in 1993, they planted 40 hectares. Over time, they realized some parcels were better than others and they made a selection keeping only 25 hectares under vines. The Domaine total acreage is 130 hectares.
It is mostly Clay and Limestone soil.

Wachau Riesling is dry and often defined by high levels of dry extract (due to a lengthy ripening period) and a pleasing freshness (due to dramatic temperature swings between day and night). Sedimentary soils of sand and stone give Kirchweg Riesling a dense mineral texture and fine fruity flavors.
Review:
Welcome to the dark side of Wachau dry riesling! Deep and delicately spicy nose that’s full of mystery. Incredible concentration and massive wet stone character on the very precise medium-bodied palate. Radical mineral energy and garden herb freshness at the enormously long and tightly-focused finish.

Chateau Hallet Sauternes is made from 100% Sémillon.
Golden in the glass, it offers delicate aromas of honey, citrus, candied fruit and acacia blossom. Lusciously sweet yet beautifully balanced, it is a natural match for foie gras, roasted meats and blue cheeses — and makes a gorgeous aperitif served well chilled.
