Note di degustazione
The 2012 Fombrauge is laced with the essence of raspberry jam, wild flowers, spices, smoke and licorice. Striking, exotic aromatics and modern contours give the Fombrauge much of its distinctive personality. There isn't a whole lot of subtlety here, yet the 2012 offers tons of immediacy in an uncomplicated style that is best enjoyed sooner rather than later.

From the stable of Bernard Magrez, Fombrauge is one of the largest estates on the Right Bank. Dominated by Merlot (90%, followed by 9% Cabernet Sauvignon and 1% Cabernet Sauvignon), the dense ruby/purple 2012 offers toasty vanilla and oaky notes interwoven with blackcurrants and black cherries. Its excellent concentration, medium body, expansive texture and ripe tannins suggest a wine that should be in its prime in 4-6 years and last for 15 or more.
Inky core, purple rim. Lifted, violet-scented dark fruit. Firm but supple and lots of energy without being exuberant – more underlying. Plenty of sweet oak on the mid palate at the moment but all in place for more to come. (JH)
