Château Fonplegade Grand Cru Classé 2017
The wine
This wine is very typical of the appellation, with an intense colour, and powerful, delicious tannins. It reveals notes of small red berries, spices and humus. This is a wine that improves by being kept for a few years.
Dating back to the Gallo-Roman era, the vineyard is planted on clay-limestone soil.
