Chateau Fonbadet 2012 is a Pauillac Bordeaux red wine bottled at 13% ABV in a 750ml bottle. The 2012 vintage is built on a blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% Merlot, vinified in traditional concrete vats. After malolactic fermentation in tank, the wine aged for approximately 18 months in French oak barrels, 30% of which were new. The nose opens with blackberry and cassis, with graphite, damp earth, dried savory herbs and cedarwood. The palate is fresh and elegant, with black currant and blackberry, a medium body, silky texture and solid tannic muscle. The finish is persistent, with black fruit, fine-grained tannins, cedar and earth.
