CHATEAU FONRAZADE 1995,
AOC Saint-Emilion Grand Cru
The colour is ruddy crimson. Aromas are a mix of grilled
fruit with whiffs of forest mushrooms. The structure
is elegantly evolved, but retains a solidly pleasant
round mellow yet rich gusto . Tannins are well blended,
suppple, and spicy. A pleasant complex wine, lingering
and soothing. The aftertaste hints of spices and liquorice.
CHATEAU FONRAZADE 1998
Its deep-dark Bordeaux-red colour is highly attractive.
The rather subtle bouquet wafts through the air with
fruity aromas. The fine and elegant taste yields a beautifully
balanced harmony between fruits and wood. With good
ageing potential, the wine is at its peak between 3
and 12 years.
(Guide Hachette des Vins 2002, 2 stars)
CHATEAU FONRAZADE 1999
Beautiful ruby-red colour with flame flickers. The bouquet
is a mix of red fruits, with currant undercurrents.
The wine starts out supple on the palate, with soft
blended tannins. Then the structure reveals itself harmonious
with blossoming balance, while laced with hints of spices
and fruit. Elegant and pleasant wine, to enjoy now,
or to set aside four or five years.
CHATEAU FONRAZADE 2000
Ruby-red colour with vermilion highlights. The blooming
bouquet is a rich mix, with ripened aromas of black
and red fruits, spicy flavors, and elegant grilled wood.
The taste is full and round, with tight-knit tannins
and a pleasant lasting aftertaste. Harmonious wine,
to be preciously safeguarded for at least three years.

CHATEAU FONRAZADE 2001
Splendid Bordeaux-red colour. Mixed bouquet of riped
fruits with subtle wooden notes. The taste starts out
supple and hearty, then evolves to a powerful structure
with strong tannins, which hold the promise of graceful
and beautiful aging.
