The estate produces a range of wines under the Fonréaud title, including the grand vin, Château Fonréaud, as well as the white Le Cygne de Fonréaud and the second wine, Légende de Fonréaud. The estate covers a patchwork of 35 hectares (86 acres) of vineyard dedicated to red wine varieties around the château building in Listrac-Médoc. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot account, very roughly, for around fifty percent of the plantings each with the remaining small proportion planted to Petit Verdot. White wine varieties cover just over five hectares (12 acres), also in Listrac-Médoc but here coming under the Bordeaux blanc appellation, with Sauvignon Blanc accounting for over half of vines. The remainder is split between Sémillon (32 percent) and Muscadelle (15 percent). These proportions are, broadly speaking, encountered in the wines. The Château Fonréaud grand vin contains slightly more than half Cabernet Sauvignon with the remainder Merlot and a tiny portion of Petit Verdot. The second wine, La Légende de Fonréaud, is a 50-50 split between Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon and the third wine, Clos des Demoiselles, showing more Merlot (just under two-thirds) than Cabernet Sauvignon. The white – officially Le Cygne but also known as Le Cygne de Fonréaud – broadly mirrors the percentages in the vineyard although, as with all wines, blend composition will vary through both natural and man-made inputs. The location which became the Fonréaud estate got its name from the elision of \"font\" (fount or spring) and \"réaux\" (royal) as the area was the location of a watering stop by the royal family in the 12th Century – when the Aquitaine region was under English control. A farmhouse on the site was replaced by a grander château in the mid 19th Century by then-owner Henri Le Blanc de Mauvezin. De Mauvezin also attached nearby Domaine de Vivens (later Château Chemin Royal) to the Fonréaud estate. The property was acquired by Léo Chanfreau in 1962. Chanfreau, a former winemaker in the French colony of Algeria, rebuilt, refurbished and replanted the estate. Some of the concrete vats constructed by Chanfreau in the early 1960s are still in use today.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"CaskCartel.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43633643159690,"sku":null,"price":442.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/files\/32_a8c4439d-fd98-47c0-a3d3-9d64d02821c6.jpg?v=1694375076","url":"https:\/\/caskcartel.com\/en-it\/products\/1995-chateau-fonreaud-listrac-medoc","provider":"CaskCartel.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
