Here are the facts about the 2019 B de Fonbadet:
Its from a small, family-run winery in Pauillac that rubs elbows with legends like Mouton-Rothschild and Latour
It was grown in a BRILLIANT Bordeaux vintage that some have compared to 1982
It bears the mark of world-renowned consulting enologist Michel Rolland
It earned 97 points and a Platinum Medal from the Decanter World Wine Awards
This Bordeaux, which Decanter called beautifully aromatic, is a seducer: We fell so hard for it that we imported it directly, which means that no middlemen are getting in between you and all its gorgeous red fruitand ensuring we can offer it at a stunningly low price.
When we first offered this last year, it vanished the same day. Since then, Wine Access members have fallen in love too, with one saying All our friends thought we had opened a $100 bottle of wine.
Fortunately, those friends were WAY off.

Fonbadet really began to take shape in the early part of the 20th century, when Pierre Peyronie and his wife Janymanagers at Chteau Lafite-Rothschild and Chteau Mouton-Rothschild, respectivelybegan acquiring overlooked parcels in Pauillac that they thought had potential. Today, the estate is overseen by their great-granddaughter, Pascale Peyronie, who brought in star enologist Michel Rolland in 2014 to play a role in winemaking and blending decisions. That move has had a lot to do with Fonbadets burgeoning quality.
Of course, for the 2019 B de Fonbadet, an incredible vintage played a role tooand when critics like Jeb Dunnuck compare the vintage to one of Bordeauxs greatest seasons of all time, you should take note. Dunnuck said, There were numerous times while tasting through these 2019s that I had the impression that I was tasting a modern-day version of the 1982s. The 2019s have the ripe, sexy profiles of a warm, sunny year, yet the beautiful aromatics, terrific purity of fruit, and freshness of a cooler year.
In other words, its a great vintage for stocking up on values like this one.
The 2019 B de Fonbadet is composed of 40% Cabernet Franc, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 30% Merlot from the familys holdings outside of Pauillac in AOC Bordeaux. We cant think of a better way to accompany a grilled rack of lamb with a ragout of porcini mushrooms and thyme. Youre going to rip through your case faster than you think!

Wine Access Tasting Note
Deep-ruby color with youthful hints of purple. There is an attractive combination of wild plum, currant, and violet on the nose, supported by notions of tobacco, graphite, and a hint of toast. Blackberry and black cherry take over on the palate, met in equal measure by notes of savory cedar, tobacco, and olive tapenade. Medium-full bodied, with tannins that are satisfyingly grippy and granular, holding firm through the dry, spicy finish. A great value for classic-Bordeaux lovers that rewards drinking right away or short-term cellaring. Drink now2027.
