Tasting Notes

89-90
Robert Parker Wine Advocate Lisa Perrotti-Brown - 23 Apr 19
Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2018 Fourcas-Dupre opens a little shy with subtle black raspberry, redcurrant jelly and cassis scents followed by suggestions of garrigue, bay leaves and tilled soil. Medium to full-bodied, it has a solid line of chewy tannins tagged with compelling freshness sparking energy into the bright fruit, finishing mineral laced.

Vinous Neal Martin - 21 Mar 21
The 2018 Fourcas Dupré displays good intensity on a nose of blackberry, briary and light tobacco notes, just a faint sea spray scent emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, quite saline in the mouth and struck through with good acidity. Red fruit begins to take over toward the finish, where clove and white pepper linger. Enjoy this well-crafted Listrac over the next 12–16 years.

Jancis Robinson Julia Harding - 20 Oct 20
54% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 1% Petit Verdot. Mid crimson, not as dark as many in 2018. Gentle, lightly spiced dark-red fruit, nicely stony. A little bit of oak sweetness on the palate but mainly a gentle, rounded wine that is really quite approachable (as long as you drank it with food) even though it’s so young. A lightness of touch and more obvious freshness than in many 2018s, perhaps because the other components are relatively restrained. (JH)

Bordeaux

Red Bordeaux, globally renowned, is crafted in France’s Bordeaux region from grapes like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc. These full-bodied wines feature dark fruit flavours, earthy and spicy notes, and often benefit from ageing. Top producers include Château Margaux, Château Latour, and Château Lafite Rothschild. White Bordeaux, made from Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon, offers styles from crisp to rich, with citrus and tropical notes. Sweet Bordeaux wines, like Sauternes, are famed for their rich sweetness and flavours of apricot and honey, with Château d’Yquem as a leading producer.
