Château Fontaine de l'Aubier 2019 – Médoc91 Points | James Suckling: "A Very Well-Made Médoc." This superb 2019 vintage balances ripe currants, healthy structure, and compelling freshness. A taste of Médoc that will truly enchant you.
"A very well-made Médoc with an attractive interplay of ripe currants, healthy tannins, and lively acidity. With some aeration, graphite and savory notes add interest. I like the fleshiness at the finish, which helps harmonize the moderately tannic core. Drinkable now, but best from 2024." — James Suckling, Wine Critic
A Fauchey Family Treasure Since 1952
Château Fontaine de l'Aubier is deeply rooted in the communes of Prignac and Lesparre, and has been a cherished property of the Fauchey family (of L'Inclassable fame) since 1952. This classic Médoc blend comes from seven hectares planted across two distinct, quality-driving terroirs: clay-limestone and clay-loamy soils.
Tasting Notes
Color: A dark, pure, and deep garnet hue.
Aroma: Potent and focused, offering classic notes of wild black fruits.
Palate: The taste is impeccably balanced and richly concentrated. Mature, silky tannins frame layers of fruit and a subtle, delightful toasted oak flavor. It closes with an elegant finish and remarkable sustained length.
