2018 Chateau de Fonbel

Other Reviews....
Made up of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Carménère, the deep garnet-purple colored 2018 Fonbel gives up spicy notes of Sichuan pepper, cinnamon stick, cloves and fenugreek with a core of warm red and black cherries, mulberries and fragrant earth. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has wonderful freshness and a soft, creamy texture supporting the vibrant red and black fruit preserves flavors, finishing with a peppery lift.

Lisa Perrotti-Brown - Wine Advocate

A juicy and rich young wine with lots of fruit and density. Round and soft tannins with hints of freshness at the same time.
