This 2016 boasts a very rich garnet colour. The nose is expressive, opening onto jammy aromas of red fruit such as cherry and redcurrant. The palate is ample and full-bodied with a tense, fresh structure. The tannins are silky and fine. This is a remarkably balanced vintage with a real force of character.
The Fontesteau vineyard has been using integrated agricultural methods for the last 30 years, exploiting the plants’ natural defence system and avoiding where possible the use of synthetic products to protect the vineyard. It's now certified as a Sustainable Vineyard.
