Description

The 2018 Chateau de Fonbel is a blend of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Carmenere and offers great value drinking in the short to medium term.  Perfumed, up front kirsch and dark cherry fruit with firm yet soft tannins.


“A blend of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 10% Carménère, the 2018 Château De Fonbel is a juicy, medium to full-bodied, elegant Saint-Émilion that has seriously good notes of black cherries, black raspberries, violets, and spice. It shows the ripe, sexy style of the vintage, but its purity of fruit and polished tannins set it apart. This is a beautiful wine and my money is on it being a best to date.”


92/94 Points – Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com, May 2019


“A juicy and rich young wine with lots of fruit and density. Round and soft tannins with hints of freshness at the same time.”


91/92 Points – James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com, April 2019
