Fabulously silky and ripe. Chock full of delicious red and blue fruit.

Bright ruby-red. Aromas and flavors of cassis, licorice, espresso and fresh herbs. Juicy, fine-grained and supple, but in a distinctly cool style for the year, with the greenness carrying through on the palate. Nicely balanced, though, and the smooth tannins will not get in the way of enjoying this wine early.
A very good, competent St.-Emilion with notes of cedar, roasted herbs, lavender, black cherries and spice, there is something southern Rhone-like to this wine’s aromatics. However, on the palate, the wine is classic Bordeaux, with moderate tannin, medium weight, and good freshness and precision. Drink it over the next decade.
Informazioni sul produttore
Owned by the same family as Ch. Ausone, Ch. de Fonbel is one of the best-value Saint-Emilion estates. It has a long history stretching back to the Roman era, however its story really begins when Alain Vauthier purchased the property in 1971.
