The Sambardiers own 50 vineyard plots
Brilliant delineation and almost overwhelming with intensity on the nose

Union de Producteurs de Saint-Émilion Esprit de Fonrozay Grande Reserve Bordeaux 2019 (750ml) St. Helena Layers of blackberry and grilledCurrant, black cherry, plum, bell pepper, olive, oak, smoke, toast, tar, blackberry, cherry, asparagus, spice, ginger and vanilla Wine Enthusiast Warm and ripe, this wine is full of black fruits and rich tannins. It is structured but this foundation is already well integrated with the fruit. Spice and a touch of licorice indicate the wood aging and also the potential of this wine. Drink from 2021.
