Chateau de Fonbel St Emilion Grand Cru 2018 / 2019
Out of stock
Chateau de Fonbel is owned by the Vauthier family, who also own Ch. Ausone, and the 16 ha vineyard and winery is found just below Ausone and Moulin St Georges in the famous right bank appellation of Saint Emilion.
Now run by Alain Vautier, the wine benefits from all the associated positives of its link to the highly regarded Ausone and is seen as one of the rising stars of the appellation, consistently offering solid wines of high quality.
The vineyard is unusually planted with 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 7% petit verdot for the St. Emilion appellation. These two varieties give the wine structure whilst also adding layers of complexity which are complimentary to the Merlot component which makes up 70% of the blend. the balance is made up by 3% carmenere, and the wine spends 10 months in oak (30% new), producing a wine with long ageing potential - up to 15 years.
