Nestled between powerhouses Chateaux Lynch-Bages, Latour, Mouton Rothschild, and Pichon-Comtesse are the vineyards of Chateau Fonbadet.

• A sleeper within this extraordinary vintage, only 3,500 bottles of Fonbadet are produced. 

There is something special about Pauillac terroir; the region boasts three of the five 1st Growths.  Those wines are justifiably priced at several hundred dollars per bottle.  That's why Fonbadet is such a find!

"The 2018 Fonbadet is gorgeous.  Deep, pliant and expressive, the 2018 has so much to offer.  In this vintage, Fonbadet has a bit more depth and overall richness than is often the case, which is not a bad thing at all. Black plum, spice and leather all resonate into the striking, textured finish. The 2018 is very nicely done...  Tasted three times."  Vinous

Bordeaux experienced an exceptional vintage in 2018.  The wines show opulence and depth while retaining lively freshness and minerality.  You will likely see more offerings from this stunning vintage - not only from Bordeaux but Burgundy and Tuscany as well; however, only a handful of wines will match this gem.

Fonbadet is a classic Pauillac and terroir-driven red.  A great value in any vintage, the 2018 Chateau Fonbadet is something special.  

At 75% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% Merlot, you can cellar this beauty for 20 years, but we won't blame you for enjoying it now.

Too bad they don't make more!

Enjoy!
