Château Fombrauge Grand Cru St. Emilion 2021

"Kräftiges Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Süße Kirschen, ein Hauch von Johannisbeeren, florale Nuancen, zart nach Mandarinenzesten, etwas Nougat. Saftig, süße Erdbeerkonfitüre, reife Tannine, schokoladig-salzig im Abgang, besitzt Länge, gutes Entwicklungspotenzial."
92/100 Punkte

"Aromas of sweet cherries, berry preserves and Black Forest cake, framed by a lavish application of creamy new oak, introduce the 2021 Fombrauge, a medium to full-bodied, broad and textural wine that's supple and fleshy, with a rich core of sweet fruit and lively balancing acids. As usual, this is a generous, front-loaded, somewhat confectionary Saint-Émilion from Bernard Magrez, though it's well made in its style."

"The 2021 Fombrauge is a bright, punchy wine. In 2021, readers will find a decidedly supple Fombrauge built on a core of red-fleshed fruit and bright acids, with less overt richness and oak intensity than in the past. I very much like the vibrancy here. Bright saline notes punctuate the finish." von ANTONIO GALLONI

"The 2021 Fombrauge was picked from September 30 to October 18 and made with malo in new barrels. This is quite heady and shows some pruny aromas on the nose. Like the aromatics, I feel that the palate is pushed to compensate for the shortcomings of the growing season, and while it has presence, it is missing complexity and delineation, not to mention the freshness that is the leitmotif of the season." von NEAL MARTIN

"Perfumed and fresh with flowers, such as lavender and violets. Medium-bodied with fine tannins that are layered and refined in texture."
