Château de Fontbel 2023 – Saint-Emilion Grand Cru

A lovely fruity nose, precise, which offers a little softness, a fine straightness and expresses notes of fleshy blackberry, pulpy blue plum and more slightly – juicy/pulpy red berries associated with fine hints of cornflower and a discreet hint of star anise. The palate is nicely juicy, fruity, balanced and offers a fresh, tangy frame, accuracy, tension, a nice definition, a discreet sappy side. It expresses notes of juicy/fresh blackberry, pulpy blackcurrant and more slightly – fresh flowers, associated with fine touches of infusion, a discreet sappy side, as well as hints of cornflower, star anise and chocolate in the background.
