Note di degustazione
From a great terroir just east of Pavie, the 2008 Château Fonplegade is a blend of 91% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc, and the balance Cabernet Sauvignon. This deep ruby/plum-colored effort offers lots of blackcurrants, graphite, dried earth, and mineral notes in a rich, medium to full-bodied, rounded, beautifully textured package. It offers more pleasure than most in the vintage.

Dark crimson. Dark chocolate on the nose. Racy. Nervy. Quite luscious fruit but a bit uncomfortably sweet. (JR)
Saturated medium ruby. Aromas of blackberry, kirsch , violet and dark chocolate, along with some tarry high tones. Densely packed and impressively concentrated, with fine-grained flavors of sweet dark cherry, currant and graphite. Offers surprising lift in the middle palate and finishes with broad, chocolatey tannins. This has the density to evolve in bottle for 10 or 15 years.
