Here’s a real treat: Château de Fonbel’s 2001 is fully mature Saint-Émilion magic—bottle-aged to silky perfection and ready to go right now.

Owned by the Vauthier family (the same folks behind the legendary Château Ausone), Fonbel offers that same soulful Bordeaux craftsmanship but at a way friendlier price. In 2001, they hit a beautiful vintage: dark cherry and plum fruit softened into savory, earthy complexity, with hints of tobacco, leather, and sweet spice laced through a silky, elegant frame.

This is classic old-school Bordeaux—not big, glossy, or flashy, but full of quiet depth and a long, graceful finish. No need to cellar, no need to decant for hours—just pop, pour, and enjoy a true slice of aged Right Bank beauty.

Perfect for: roast lamb, mushroom dishes, cozy dinners, or just flexing your good taste without flexing your budget.
