Jeb Dunnuck bewertete (04/2023) Château Fonbadet 2020 wie folgt: „A Pauillac that has been over-delivering from some time now, the 2020 Château Fonbadet reveals a healthy ruby/purple hue as well as textbook aromatics of blackcurrants, cassis, graphite, tobacco, and a kiss of background oak. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it’s balanced, has the vintage’s straight, focused style, and enough tannins to warrant 4-6 years of bottle age. It will keep for two decades.“. – 94 Punkte

Antonio Galloni bewertete Château Fonbadet 2020 wie folgt: „The 2020 Fonbadet is a soft, succulent Pauillac. Fruit and forward, but with bright acids, the 2020 has a lot to offer. I admit, I wanted a bit more complexity here, but the 2020 is nicely done and very easy to like. Red fruit, cedar and sweet pipe tobacco linger..“ – 93 Punkte

Decanter bewertete (01/2022) Château Fonbadet 2019 wie folgt: „Heady and seductive on the nose with faint floral reflections. There is a good juicy quality to this, immediately quite mouthwatering and succulent with fine tannins and a smooth silky texture. Lots of energy and drive here, bright and confident with pulsing acidity and a firm overall structure presenting all the elements well. Lovely Pauillac typicity on show…“ 93 Punkte

Jeff Leve bewertete (03/2022) Château Fonbadet 2019 wie folgt: „Tobacco leaves, barbecue, cedar, spearmint, currants and blackberries create a nose worth putting your nose in. On the palate, the wine is fresh, supple, polished and firm, with layers of crémé de cassis, coffee bean, black cherries, plums, spice and creamy tannins. This is even better in the bottle than it was from the barrel. It can for at least 20 years, if you let it. Though I will start drinking my bottles much earlier. Drink from 2025-2045“ – 93 Punkte

Falstaff bewertete (01/2023) Château Fonbadet 2019 wie folgt: „Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, dezente Ockerrandaufhellung. Feine Kräuterwürze, Edelholz, Noten von Brombeeren und Cassis, zart nach Lakritze und Tabak. Saftig, rote Herzkirschen, lebendig strukturiert, reife Tannine, mineralisch-salzig im Abgang, bereits harmonisch, ein vielseitig einsetzbarer Speisenbegleiter….“ 93 Punkte
