The Château La Fontaine de Genin is a great wine. A Bordeaux of this level from this price range can be called special. Chateau La Fontaine de Genin has belonged to the same family for 3 generations. M. Benoit Prevot (40 years old) is the grandson of the first owner. He is also cellar master for all of Michel Rolland's own wine, including from the world-famous Chateau. Fontenil (Fronsac) and Ch. Bon Pasteur (Pomerol).

Château La Fontaine de Genin is located in the village of Sainte Radegonde, in the Entre-deux-Mers region. This area in Bordeaux between the Gironde and the Atlantic Ocean has been on the rise in recent years. Due to its location between the 2 'seas', cooling is guaranteed here and with the current global warming, this region also has sufficient cooling during hot periods and this ensures the elegance in wines - something that Bordeaux is famous for but which is becoming more and more of a challenge given the warming. The Chateau has a small vineyard of only 5 Ha located on a clayey limestone soil.
