| Description: | About the Icons. A Monthly Wine Club Selection. F. Thienpont is the personal project of François Thienpont, the Bordeaux luminary whose family owns legendary Right Bank estates Vieux Château Certan and Le Pin, as well as Château Puygeraud. Established in 2000 to highlight the best qualities of the vintage, the F. Thienpont wines are fruit driven and demonstrative of the elegance expected of the appellation; primarily Merlot-based wines grown on the Monbadon plateau east of Saint-Émilion, in vineyards that have been cultivated for over 10 years using completely organic methods. For this project, François brought on legendary oenologist Stéphane Derenoncourt, who works for many Bordeaux wineries (including Beausejour Duau-Lagarrosse, Pavie-Macquin, La Mondotte and Clos Fourtet) as consulting oenologist. |
