Fonplegade is one of the oldest estates in Bordeaux, with Roman remains on the property dating back to AD 400 and its name inspired by the natural springs in the vineyard. The estate has been owned since 2004 by Americans Stephen and Denise Adams, who have spent much money restoring the château and putting winemaking back to its rightful quality. The vineyards are some of the best in the region combining plantings on the côte and the plateau, both south-facing. The vineyards have been farmed organically since 2017 and turned biodynamic from 2020.

I like this Reserva from RdD. 100% Tempranillo aged for 24 months in oak barrels.
3.8 stars with more aging potential.
A deep ruby red and purple shades. Thick long legs in the glass.
On the nose medium intense aromas of blackberries, black cherries, black raspberries, horse saddle, leather and slightly oak.

90 pts Given the quality of the Crianza I really was delighted to find this Reserva, needs way more time to fully flower however, still very enjoyable for me now. The Crianza is ready now, but this shows sleeping intensity and great future potential and longevity, wait a few years however.
Typical earthy red fruit with good use of oak, dusty vanilla. Weighty, full with a long finish, it will be a star in the future.
