Breeding
16 to 18 months in French oak barrels (approximately 40-50% new wood)
On the eye
Deep, dark purple robe with violet hues in youth, evolving towards intense ruby as it matures.
On the nose
Exuberant bouquet of ripe dark fruits—blackcurrant preserve, cassis, black cherry—layered with noble oak: vanilla, roasted coffee, chocolate and toasted bread notes.
In the mouth
Spherical, fleshy palate with mature, tightly-woven tannins enveloped by generous substance. A wine of considerable volume and structure, built for cellaring.
This Grand Cru Classé exemplifies modern Saint-Emilion at its most voluptuous, combining technical precision with richness and depth. A natural companion to game birds, particularly wild duck with bitter orange sauce, where its structured tannins and dark fruit character find ideal expression.

CHATEAU FOMBRAUGE
Set across the slopes and plateau of Saint-Christophe-des-Bardes, Château Fombrauge spans 59 hectares in the Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé appellation, on argilo-calcaire and calcaires à astéries soils typical of the Right Bank. Bernard Magrez acquired the château in 1999 — its origins trace back to the fifteenth century — and undertook a thorough renovation before it was classified Grand Cru Classé in 2012, a status confirmed in 2022. The estate is farmed entirely under organic certification, with yields held to 32 hl/ha. At Halles Quercamps, we have selected this château for the rigour of its organic viticulture, the typicity of its terroir, and the consistent quality Bernard Magrez has established since his arrival. A dependable reference for lovers of characterful Saint-Émilion.
