Château Fonbadet Cru Bourgeois Pauillac 2021

"Aromas of cassis, cigar wrapper, loamy soil and toasty oak introduce the 2021 Fonbadet, a medium to full-bodied, lively wine that's a touch compact and extracted but which displays some character and intensity."
87-89/100 Punkte

"The 2021 Fonbadet is bright, precise and impeccably balanced. This classy Pauillac is not trying to be anything it is not, but all the elements are so well put together. A burst of bright red-flesh fruit intermingled with lifted floral notes and lively acids rounds things out." von ANTONIO GALLONI

"The 2021 Fonbadet was picked September 29 to October 12 at 44hL/ha. The well-defined nose offers minerally black fruit and neatly enmeshed oak. The palate is medium-bodied, cohesive and poised, with fine-grained tannins, a fine line of acidity and a sustained finish. This is a superb, dense and muscular Pauillac that might well represent the best value within the appellation." von NEAL MARTIN

"Blackberry and blueberry with stone and graphite. Medium-bodied with a solid core of fruit and tannins. Medium-chewy finish."
