Château Fombrauge 2019 – Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Grand Cru Classé

The nose is fruity and offers power, a fine grain and a peppery side. It reveals notes of cassis, Boysen berry, small notes of wild strawberry associated with touches of small juicy/pulpy berries, cuben pepper, liquorice as well as hints of grilled/coffee and a subtle hint of roasted hazelnut. The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers a fine acidulous frame, juiciness, tension as well as gourmandize, finesse of the guideline, a racy minerality and fat. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy cassis, blackberry, small notes of raspberry associated with touches of violet plum, cornflower, lily, small blue fruits as well as hints of zan, sugared mild tobacco, nutmeg and a very discreet hint of black pepper. Good length.
