Château Fombrauge is a Grand Cru Classé property situated in Saint-Émilion. The Château has been owned by Bernard Magrez since 1999, and it is one of the largest estates in Saint-Émilion, with 58.6 hectares of vineyards. The 2000 vintage represents a momentous year for both the estate and Bordeaux as a whole. It offers a captivating glimpse into the cellar-worthy potential of well-crafted Bordeaux wines and promises a memorable drinking experience for enthusiasts and collectors alike.

A revelation, this stunning wine (also reasonably priced) has turned out to be even better than I thought. Opaque purple-colored, with gorgeous ripeness and richness, a big, sweet mid-palate, and a seamless finish revealing loads of fruit, chocolate, glycerin, and ripe tannin, this opulently-styled 2000 will have few detractors. It is hard not to be totally seduced by this effort. Kudos to proprietor Bernard Magrez and his omnipresent oenologist, Michel Rolland. Bravo! Anticipated maturity. Now-2015. - Robert M. Parker, Jr.

Red-ruby. Smoky, tarry aromas of baked plum and coffee. Sweet and fat, with concentrated flavors of plum, cedar and mocha, but showing a slightly offputting raw note in the middle. Finishes with dusty, slightly dry tannins and a faint greenness. Seems rather heavily extracted.
