Chateau Fondarzac

Region:
Naujan-et-Postiac, Gironde

Grapes:
50% Merlot, 25% Cabernet sauvignon, 25% Cabernet Franc

Tasting Notes:
This red Bordeaux is a lovely, brilliant, young color, with a really fresh, fruity bouquet. It is crisp and flavourfulon the palate as well as full-bodied and soft. Its spicy, green-pepper aromas follow through in a nice, fruity aftertaste.
A Bordeaux to enjoy with white meat stews, roast chicken, cold buffets, and most medium-flavoured cheeses.
