Chateau Fonplegade St.-Emilion 2019 750ml Wairarapa and salmonWinemaker Notes An incredible deep purple color. Strong aromas on the nose. Lot of fruits flavors and appealing soft roundness. Incredibly soft tannins supported by a wonderful acidity that provides a remarkably long finish. Professional Ratings 94 Decanter Lashings of blackberry and liquorice, dark chocolate with a core of freshness. This was the point at which Fonplgade started to hit it out of the park. You would think it was a 2015 or a 2016 given
