Description
Chateau de Fesles is situated in the district of Thouarcé in the Anjou region, very close to the village of Bonnezeaux itself. The origins of the chateau can be traced back as far as 1070, when the original buildings were constructed. The current buildings in fact date from the 19th century, although the chateau has been remodelled by its various owners over the centuries. The most recent changes have been in 1991, whilst under the control of Gaston Lenôtre, a celebrated pastry chef.
The wines of the domain are reputable and very consistent over time. They are sweet but time will enable them to show their capabilities and to be balance between sweetness and complexity. Give them 10 years minimum but for good vintages you can forget them for a very long time.
