Fronsac on the Right Bank always gives Merlot-dominant wines that have a touch of Left Bank feel. Here around 25% Cabernet Franc elevates the perfume nicely. Owner/winemaker Thierry Gaudrie never pushes ripeness or extraction to extremes, giving the 2016 Villars a lovely balance of juicy berry/currant fruit and fine freshness and grip. Stylish and very appetizing.

Vinous: 89 Points

"The 2016 Villars has come together beautifully. Lavender, rose petal, mint and sweet red/purplish berries all lift from the glass. This is an especially perfumed, silky Fronsac built on finesse and understated energy. All the elements meld together effortlessly."
