Right Bank Rêverie
A passion for fine wine and gracious hospitality brought Denise and Stephen Adams to this majestic spot, drawn to the wild, growing earth and moved by the art that captures its beauty.
Our Story
Pilgrims once flocked to our stone “fountain of plenty,” or Fonplégade. Centuries after the first vines were planted here, the power of this place endures, and the fountain’s promise of abundance still holds true.

A Piano
and an Open Door
The piano in our Orangerie rarely stays quiet for long. Musicians perform here often, and now and then a guest, lingering over a glass, is drawn to the keys to play. We invite you to enjoy this selection of music, one of the many melodies that fill the air at Château Fonplégade.
Un Sospiro — Franz Liszt
