2016 Chateau Fombrauge Saint-Emilion Grand Cru, France

(94 Points) Deep dark ruby with a firm core, purple reflections and a subtle brightening on the rim. The nose shows fully ripe cherries, gentle nougat, a hint of plums and pleasant herbal spice - an inviting bouquet. Juicy, but not opulent, the palate is one of pleasant fruit character, elegance and persistence, it is a very promising wine, textural with a ripe fruit finish.  - Falstaff
