Château Fombrauge 2020
Descripción
Château Fombrauge proviene de una de las fincas más antiguas de Saint-Émilion. Sus orígenes se remontan al siglo XVI, encarnando desde entonces la elegancia de esta denominación. En sus 58 hectáreas de viñedo se cultivan Merlot y Cabernet franc que forman el coupage de esta añada, al que ya se le augura una gran capacidad de guarda. Michel Rolland ejerce de consultor de la casa y bajo su asesoría nace este tinto, aún en barrica, que en las primeras catas da gran muestra de refinamiento y equilibrio hasta al punto de que el propio crítico James Suckling se pregunta si no estaremos ante su mejor cosecha hasta la fecha.

Opinión de los críticos
This is really finely textured with beautiful tannins that run the length of the wine and go on and on. It’s full-bodied, yet refined and poised. Pretty finish. Best ever?
The inky-hued 2020 Château Fombrauge is another wonderful Saint-Emilion that shines on all accounts. Possessing terrific purity in its cassis-styled fruits as well as notes of violets, chocolate, and chalky minerality, this puppy is medium to full-bodied, has a great mid-palate, background oak, and outstanding length. Tasted twice.
Barrel Sample. From vines surrounding one of Saint-Emilion's most beautiful château, this wine is massively rich with dense tannins, dark chocolate and rich berry flavors. Obviously, it has a fine future, ripe with powerful fruits and structure.
The 2020 Fombrauge has a deep garnet-purple color and expressive notes of chocolate-covered cherries, mulberries and baked plums, plus hints of espresso, graphite and cedar chest with a waft of Sichuan pepper. The medium to full-bodied palate is elegantly crafted with lovely freshness and a well-tamed, grainy texture, finishing long and earthy.
Confident and structured, offering a velvet texture and dense plum and blackberry fruits, plenty of punch with ground coffee on the finish. Now one of the largest estates in St-Emilion at 58ha. Olivier Desmond technical director. Drinking Window 2026-2040.
