LA PASSION DES TERROIRS

Château Fonroque Saint-Emilion grand cru 2019

- 92 points -

Fairly austere at first, as is often the case with Fonroque as it rarely overlayers its tannins with chocolate and toast notes. When you sit with it the juice comes through, and this is very attractive, well placed cassis and raspberry fruits, soft white pepper spicing and a saline kick on the finish. Come back in 6-8 years and enjoy how mouthwateringly enjoyable this is going to be. A yield of 40hl/ha.
