Chateau de Fonbel Grand Cru

Chateau de Fonbel Grand Cru

Description

From a 16-hectare vineyard on sandy soils on the plain, the 2019 Fonbel is a Merlot-dominant blend complemented by some Cabernet Sauvignon and, since 2004, Carmenère. Offering up aromas of blueberries, raspberries and loamy soil, it's a medium to full-bodied, ample and succulent wine with delicate tannins and a supple, giving profile. 70% is fully matured in tank to keep the fruit in the foreground. (90 pts, William Kelley, Wine Advocate)
