Producer Background
Fat Bastard Wines was born in the late 1990s through a collaboration between French winemaker Thierry Boudinaud and British importer Guy Anderson. While experimenting with a lees-aged Chardonnay in the Languedoc-Roussillon region of France, they created a wine so unexpectedly full-bodied that it sparked the now-famous exclamation: “It’s a fat bastard!” The name stuck, and so did their commitment to crafting wines that are generous, approachable, and packed with flavour.
The brand draws fruit from select vineyards across southern France, particularly in the warm Mediterranean climate of Languedoc-Roussillon. Here, ripe grapes and careful vinification techniques result in smooth, fruit-forward wines designed to be enjoyed without pretension. Fat Bastard’s modern, unfiltered style appeals to wine drinkers who value quality without complexity, and its international success is a testament to that formula. You’ll find their wines nestled within our French Wines collection, proudly featured for customers seeking wine Ireland can trust.
