Davy states that the refined fruitiness in his wines is from fermenting the base wine in used Puligny-Montrachet barrels which makes sense as he learned his trade in Burgundy

This jaw-dropping wine opens with a near 50/50 split between fresh vibrant fruits of white peach and apple and crunch rock

Chateau Mouton Rothschild, Pauillac, France 2016 Chateau de Fonbel wine very soft and velvetyDark ruby, purple color. Aromas of blackcurrants, black truffle, crushed stone, licorice and hints of tar. Full bodied, deep and vertical on the palate, drawing you in and down. The structure is very tannic and powerful, yet the tannins are folded into the wine. One of the most powerful Moutons ever for me. 100 Pts James Suckling
