Description
Fronsac, one of Bordeaux's satellite appellations, is found on the north bank of the Dordogne River, and its wines are crafted primarily from Merlot. Though Fronsac and the other satellite regions do not own the provenance and majesty of Bordeaux's greatest wine-growing areas, they do share some of their traits and so can be a wonderful introduction to Bordeaux. Expect to enjoy a wine with complex ripe dark fruit, earth and spice tones with the structure to age another 3-5 years.

Tasting Notes
This is a slim, youthful but quite complex and well balanced Bordeaux from the right-bank, merlot dominant appellation of Fronsac. It is classic/traditional Bordeaux but I often find that is the nature of Fronsac, a bit stern, lean and mineral. There is raspberry fruit, tea/shrubbiness and some earthiness and greenness on the finish. Fairly tannic too but not out of balance. The length is very good. Best 2021 to 2024. If serving sooner let it aerate an hour in a decanter. Score - 88. (David Lawrason, winealign.com, Aug. 19, 2019)
