Château Fombrauge 2023

The 2023 Fombrauge is terrific. Rich, deep and explosive, the 2023 packs a serious punch. There’s plenty of the textural richness Bernard Magrez loves, but it’s just a bit tempered compared to previous years. Succulent red cherry, plum, rose petal, spice, menthol, licorice and mocha infuse the 2023 with notable depth. Bright acids refresh the palate nicely. Tasted four times. Drinking window: 2027-2043.
