Producer Information

The Roy family have been vignerons in the village of Fontenay, just to the north of Chablis, for over 200 years.

They are one of the largest owners of the grands crus including a magnificent 3.5-hectare plot in Bougros.

Production

This Chablis come from several parcels totaling about 9 hectares, from the communes of Fontenay and Maligny. All of the parcels were planted in the 70’s. The yield is limited to 60 hl/ha.

Fermented and aged in stainless steel vats in order to preserve the maximum of fruit, they produce a magnificent range of crisp, elegant, pure, unoaked Chablis.

Tasting Notes

Coteaux de Fontenay, their finest cuvee within Chablis AOC, is a plot of old vines on a steep, south facing hillside next to premier cru Fourchaume. Rich nose of apples, white flowers, citrus with hints of pineapple all wrapped around a marine mineral core, that becomes more prevalent as the wine warms. Nice acidity holds it all together on the palate, well balanced.

Perfect as an aperitif to go with gougeres, a cold andouillette, and comte cheese. It also works with snails, asparagus, sauerkraut, terrines, fresher pasta dishes, pesto and sea food.
