Product Details
Mayne Vieil, one of the reference producers of this often sharp value appellation, has produced a plump, very ripe but also structured Fronsac here in the excellent 2016 vintage, a pure merlot from old vines. It offers exceptional depth and density of dark fruit, with small yields evident in the sheer extract and concentration. I love the generous, mouth filling texture allied to abundant, ripe tannins, thick and velvety, containing the dark fruit. Very good to excellent length. Exceptional value. Drink or hold into the late '20s without concern. Tasted April 2020. Score - 93. (John Szabo, MS, winealign.com)
