Ripe black cherries, chalky minerality, blueberries, and spring flowers emerge from the 2022 Château Fougas Maldoror, a medium-bodied, elegant Côtes du Bourg based on 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc. The balance is spot-on, and it has terrific purity as well as ripe, integrated tannins, all making for an impressive barrel sample.

The 2022 Fougas Maldoror is austere and a bit oaky on the nose, but the medium to full-bodied is better, exhibiting refined tannins and an enveloping core of fruit. I'd expect this to show better in bottle.
