The 2020 vintage is rated 92/100 by le Guide Bettane et Desseauve 2024
Rated 91/100 by N. Martin "The 2020 Fonréaud is much cleaner on the nose than it showed from barrel. Blackberry and bilberry fruit, no sign of any Brettanomyces, quite focused. The palate is well balanced with fine delineation, taut and fresh with a saline finish. Give this 3-4 years in bottle as it is promising." (December 2022)
