Tasting Note

2020 de Fonbel is deep garnet-purple in colour. It comes bounding out with notions of boysenberries, stewed plums, and fresh blueberries, plus suggestions of pencil shavings, lavender, and tilled soil. The medium-bodied palate is vibrant and expressive, with very soft tannins and a lively backbone, finishing with lots of energy. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, The Wine Independent

Product Notes

Château de Fonbel Saint Emilion Grand Cru is a truly exquisite Bordeaux wine hailing from the esteemed French vineyard, Château Ausone. An invigorating blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot, it unveils inviting flavours of ripe berries, velvety plum, and a hint of savoury spice. Its full-bodied nature perfectly balances the soft tannins and vibrant acidity, while its long finish speaks of the care in its creation. This red wine exhibits Burgundy’s classic elegance and depth in each glass. Enjoyed alone or paired with rich cuisine, the Château de Fonbel Saint Emilion Grand Cru is a testament to fine wine craftsmanship.
