Fonroque
Run by the passionate and hugely talented Alain Moueix, Fonroque was among Bordeaux's pioneers of biodynamics, going 100% biodynamic in 2008. Since the shift to Biodynamics the estate's wines have taken off with some of their best vintages ever coming in the last few years. A brilliant Saint-Emilion firmly ranking among the region's best, this is a wine to buy now before the price for great vintages starts soaring.

Bordeaux | 1 | 96 (DC) | HK$1,700.00 | |||||
Decanter (96)Power and structure in abundance, but it’s the spellbinding acidity that propels this stunning effort skyward. A shy nose of raspberries and sandalwood opens into a concentrated, long and impressively fruit driven palate (90% Merlot). Still grippy; needs time. |

Bordeaux | 3 | 90-92 (VN (NM)) | HK$1,120.00 | |||||
Vinous - Neal Martin (90-92)The 2017 Fonroque has a perfumed bouquet with redcurrant and crushed strawberry fruit, a touch of vanilla and a faint touch of cedar and dark chocolate. It opens nicely with aeration but never gets carried away (as Alain Moueix’s wines tend not to!) The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, a fine bead of acidity, fresh and tender in the mouth with quite a long, silky finish. Delightful! |
