Note di degustazione
The 2024 Château Fonroque showed well, with ripe aromatics of red and black fruits, sappy flowers, and leafy, tobacco-like nuances. It's nicely balanced, medium-bodied, has juicy acidity, and a good finish. It's well-made and has outstanding potential. This is a château readers should have on their radar as quality has been on an upward trajectory. The blend is 62% Merlot and 38% Cabernet Franc.

Aromas of rich berries, licorice and spices introduce the 2024 Fonroque, a medium to full-bodied, rich and layered wine with good density and energy. It's a strong effort.
Softly spoken expression of the vintage, there is charm here, with redcurrant and raspberry fruits, a little dilute through the mid palate but with waves of sage and tobacco leaf to add complexity. Early to medium term drinking. Harvest 24 September to 7 October. 26 hl/ha yield.
The 2024 Fonroque is a soft, caressing Saint-Émilion from Alain Moueix. Supple contours wrap around a core of red-toned fruit, cinnamon, blood orange, cedar and pipe tobacco. Floral top notes extend the finish nicely.
