JS 91-94 (4/2018): A solid red for the vintage with dark berries, dark chocolate and some crushed-stone character. Medium body, a pretty core of fruit and a clean finish.
JD 89-92 (4/2018): I continue to love the wines from Fontenil, which is the home estate of consultant Michel Rolland. The 2017 Château Fontenil is a pleasure-bent effort that has a ripe, rounded, impressively textured style as well as plenty of plum, blackberry and cassis fruit, herbs, and hints of violet-like aromatics. Drink it anytime over the coming decade. It offers more pleasure than most in the vintage.
VM 89-91 (5/2018): The 2017 Fontenil is well defined, and quite focused compared to the previous two vintages. It has a rather conservative bouquet that nevertheless has fine intensity with attractive black fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannin, just a nagging green vein towards the second half that just discombobulates the finish and lingers unwanted on the aftertaste. That may dissipate during the elevage – we will see. Neal Martin.
WA 88-90 (4/2018): The 2017 Fontenil is deep garnet-purple in color and sports warm blackberries, cassis and plums notes with an earthy background and a waft of baking spices. Medium-bodied with soft tannins and refreshing acidity, it has plenty of juicy fruit and good length. |

| JD 92-94 (5/2023): The 2022 Château Fontenil is a beauty, and as with the Castillon region, Fronsac has some true gems that compete with the top wines. Black cherries, currants, spicy oak, and graphite all emerge from the glass, and this is full-bodied, with a layered, concentrated texture and ripe tannins. It's going to need 3-5 years of bottle age, but this brilliant 2022 is well worth seeking out. |
