Château Fonfroide produces wines across Bordeaux's classic spectrum. The Bordeaux Blanc blends Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc, combining the textural richness of the former with the aromatic precision of the latter. The Bordeaux Rosé draws on Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot—the region's foundational red varieties—vinified for dry, mineral character. The core Bordeaux red unites the same trio in traditional proportions, balancing Merlot's plush structure with Cabernet Franc's herbal spine and Cabernet Sauvignon's tannin framework. Wine Enthusiast and Wine Spectator have assessed the portfolio. The whites and rosé have earned particular recognition among the house's offerings, reflecting the precision required to work with Bordeaux's cool-climate white grapes and the technical skill of crafting dry pink wine in a region better known for reds.
