Fabre Montmayou Red Bordeaux Blend Grand Vin 2006

Member Review by dynowine:

Undecanted from a preservation machine. Intense creamy nose with fruit and hints of tobacco and earth. In the mouth rich layered ripe and chewy sour fruit (cassis, blackberry, and dark cherry) with hint of earth. Lively acid on the attack, fuzzy tannins on the tongue. Finish of sour fruit that fades to dirt and nut and lingers with some pleasant bitterness. Body medium plus, acid medium plus, tannins medium plus. Dry. Quite tasty, ok price as tested, about USD30.

Fabre Montmayou:

Fabre Montmayou is a winery founded by Hervé Joyeaux Fabre in the 1990s in Lujan de Cuyo, Argentina. Having grown up around the wine business in Bordeaux, France he came to Mendoza, searching for new winemaking possibilities. He purchased a historic Malbec vineyard, planted in 1908, and cultivated wine from the old vines. His visionary ideas have succeeded in creating excellent wines with concentrated, character. From there, other old vine vineyards were purchased to continue this pursuit for wines with unique personality. Fabre Montmayou produces Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay and Torrontes in young and reserva styles. Read less
