| Description: | About the Icons. A Monthly Wine Club Selection. Château Fontarèche, which takes its name from the Latin "fonte erecto" (the fountain that springs), is one of the great historic wine estates of Languedoc, dating back to the tenth century. The current domaine consists of 200 hectares surrounding an ancient fortress that was constructed in the twelfth century. It has been owned by the Comte de Lamy's family for nine generations, including the famous painter, Pierre Mignard, director of the Royal Academy of Painting under King Louis Xiv. Not only was he the portrait painter for the king and major figures at the court, but his works include the paintings which decorate the dome of the Church of the Val-de-Grâce in Paris, as well as The Virgin of the Grapes which is on display at the Louvre Museum. |
