Château Tessendey sits in Libournais, the historic heart of Bordeaux's Right Bank, where clay and iron-rich soils favor the region's signature grapes. The winery produces Fronsac, a blend of Cabernet Franc and Merlot that reflects the appellation's character: structured, earthy, with the dark fruit and mineral tension that define this corner of the region. Wine Enthusiast and Decanter have both assessed the winery's output, recognizing the precision of its blending approach. Fronsac remains the flagship expression, balancing the herbaceous spine of Cabernet Franc with Merlot's roundness and depth.
