Bernard Magrez

Château Fombrauge Saint-Èmilion Grand Cru Red Bordeaux Blend 2022

Surprising amount of energy and lift for a wine of this type, still full bodied but leans more towards a medium red than heavy. Very soft tannins, blackberry forward with some plum, blueberry, a bit of raspberry & floral notes and cedar — a day ago
