TASTING NOTE: The polish and poise that are so typical of the Fabre Montmayou style are gloriously in evidence here on this varietal Cabernet Sauvignon. Notes of chocolate, green pepper and graphite combine attractively on the palate, with stylish oak, filigree tannins and lovely fruit weight. 2016-22. Score - 93 (Tim Atkin, MW, timatkin.com, April 2016) |
