Château Fonréaud 2025 - France - En Primeur
Château Fonréaud 2025 is a classic expression of Listrac-Médoc, delivering the appellation’s signature structure and freshness with a more refined and polished edge in the 2025 vintage. The wine shows improved precision, balancing traditional Médoc backbone with modern clarity of fruit.
The nose is open and aromatic, offering blackcurrant, blackberry, and red cherry, layered with violet, cedar, tobacco leaf, and subtle earthy spice. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied with firm yet fine-grained tannins and a structured core. The fruit is clean and well-defined, supported by fresh acidity that brings lift and balance. Oak is well integrated, adding gentle spice and depth without dominating the fruit. The finish is straight, elegant, and lightly mineral, with good length and classic Médoc character.
