CHÂTEAU FOMBRAUGE 2019 - Saint-Émilion Grand Cru - Bordeaux, France (Grand Cru Classé)
CHÂTEAU FOMBRAUGE - Saint-Émilion Grand Cru - Bordeaux, France (Grand Cru Classé)
The color is dark, limpid and intense, endowed with a very beautiful color. The nose is flattering undulating around a fruity and floral frame. We perceive more particularly notes of red fruits such as than black cherries, walls and elderberry in this Château Fombrauge Rouge 2018. In the mouth, the wine is immediately deliciously perfumed. The taste is very fruity and the texture is soft. Gradually, the aromas develop for an increasingly intense and deep tasting.
