The wine is a lovely dark purple garnet in the glass and jumps out with a gorgeous array of black cherry and currant fruits, hints of rubbed sage, and cigar box notes with darker hints of licorice and bitter-sweet chocolate as the wine opens in the glass. This is a plush and velvety wine after a decade in the cellar and the finish is long and pure.
Aromas of shaved chocolate and berries. Medium to full body, velvety tannins and a juicy finish. Solid. Drink in 2020.
Owned by the Borie family, one of the grand families of Bordeaux, the vineyard forms part of Château Fourcas-Borie. The wine, with its dark tannins and dense texture, is powerful and concentrated. Layers of tannins show most strongly at this young stage, while the ripe juicy fruit will develop well. It is going to be a fine wine. Drink from 2021.
