2000 Chateau Fontenil Fronsac

[winoweenie]

Another lovel offering from this superb vintage. Bought this wine blind and with no previous encounter on the reccomendation of a trusted friend. Too bad California can't produce Merlot with the depth, flavours, color, and finish this lil'bugger offers.Soft, lush merlot fruit that assails the palate. Enough tannins to take it another 8-10. Produced by Michael Rolland this is a super find. 90/92 14.99 by the box en premieur.
