Decent Fronsac with a lot of chalky tannins, still a solid option for those who enjoy this style, despite not quite reaching the heights of the 2018 vintage.

Rich, full-bodied wine with a bold garnet glow and a dimensional floral notes of rich fruit, blackberry, blackcurrant, and spices, accompanied by a elegant leather and earthy undertones. The wine's touch is polished and velvety, with a medium+ body and a soft acidity. The aftertaste is long and satisfying, with well-integrated tannins that add dimension and structure. Overall, a well-balanced and harmonious wine with a rich, full-bodied character.

What the web is saying
Château Fontenil Fronsac is praised for its rich, full-bodied character with notes of blackberry, plum, and spices. Many appreciate its well-integrated tannins and long, satisfying finish, while some find it lacks substance in the mid-palate. The wine's earthy and leathery undertones add complexity, though opinions vary on its aging potential. Overall, it offers a harmonious blend of flavors, making it a solid choice for Bordeaux enthusiasts.
Voss Experts4.0
This Château Fontenil Fronsac is a rich and vibrant red wine that displays an array of red and dark fruit aromas. On the palate, it is full-bodied with a deep core of dark plum and blackberry flavors, along with hints of forest floor, licorice, and spice. The tannins are firm and structured, giving it a long and complex finish. Enjoy this elegant and well-balanced Bordeaux alongside steak, lamb, or game.
