Chateau Fonbadet 2022 Vintage Overview

2022 OVERVIEW

Opening with a cool, fragrant mix of dark berries, lavender and gentle spice, Chateau Fonbadet 2022 feels poised rather than powerful, offering juicy blackcurrant and plum wrapped in fine, sleek tannins. The oak sits quietly in the background, lending a touch of cedar and savory complexity to a Pauillac that is graceful, polished and ready to charm without demanding long cellaring.

About Chateau Fonbadet

Château Fonbadet is a classic, Cabernet Sauvignon‑led Pauillac from a patchwork of prime gravel parcels surrounded by first growths, producing a structured yet supple Bordeaux blend with dark cassis, blackberry, tobacco and graphite notes. Typically full-bodied but finely balanced, it combines ripe fruit with fresh, mineral lift and firm tannins, giving the wine both early charm and the ability to age gracefully.
