The Fonplegade Fleur de Fonplegade 2020 is a distinct expression of craftsmanship and terroir from the renowned Château Fonplegade in Saint-Émilion, Bordeaux. This harmonious blend harmoniously marries Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, all organically and biodynamically grown, conveying the rich biodiversity of the estate. Exemplifying dedication to the art of winemaking, the hand-picked and double-sorted grapes undergo whole berry fermentation before maturation in carefully selected oak barrels. This process cultivates delicate aromatics and intricate complexity with smooth tannins. The palate reveals black currant, truffle, and dried herb characteristics, and a noteworthy length imbued with spice undertones. Under the stewardship of Proprietors Stephen and Denise Adams, the Fonplegade Fleur de Fonplegade 2020 encapsulates the integrity and uniqueness of their vineyard, capturing the quintessence of Bordeaux's right bank in every cherished bottle. |

The wine is made from a blend of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc. |

Jancis Robinson (17)Full bottle 1,325 g. Cask sample taken 7 April. Certified organic. Medium-intensity purple. Quite a distinctive nose of vegetation and herbs rather than brow-beating sweet fruit – attractive. Then on the palate there's some richness but this seems to have more elements at play than many of its peers. More transparent and expressive. Finishes decidedly dry but not drying. 14% |

Wine Advocate (92-94+)Opaque purple-black in color, the 2020 Fontenil needs a little swirling and coaxing to release opulent scents of plum preserves, blueberry compote and chocolate-covered cherries, plus suggestions of candied violets, ground cloves and fertile loam.

Vinous - Neal Martin (90-92)The 2020 Fourcas Hosten displays very good intensity on a nose of ebullient blackberry, cedar and crushed violet scents that burst from the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannins. A slight herbaceous element lends freshness, and white pepper and graphite appear toward the grippy, almost sinewy finish. This is quite a bold Listrac that will require 4–5 years in bottle, but it comes across as cohesive and shows good cellaring potential. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (87)The 2020 Frank Phélan, which will be released in 2023, has a well-defined nose, hints of black olive tinging the black fruit with raspberry and mulberry surfacing with time. The palate is medium-bodied with a soft opening, quite rounded and fleshy, perhaps missing a little tension on the finish. As such, it's an early-drinking Saint-Estèphe that should give several years' drinking pleasure. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (86-88)The 2020 Goulée by Cos d'Estournel is perfumed and silky in the glass. Cedar, sweet pipe tobacco and crushed flowers lend attractive aromatic presence. This is an especially gracious style that feels a bit light, especially on the mid-palate and finish, where there is some loss of persistence. |

James Suckling (96-97)This is really fantastic with so much intensity and focus. Firm, linear tannins frame the wine beautifully. Polished and fine. It’s full-bodied, yet tight and posed. Complex flavors of blackberry, black olive, mushroom and bark. Persistent finish. Best of the trilogy? |
