Fourcas Dupré - Listrac-Médoc 2016

Located in the high point of the Medoc, in the AOC of Listrac, Fourcas Dupré has asserted itself as one of the leaders of the appellation, and clearly one of the best bargains.

Ghislain and Patrice Pagès run the vineyard with a consistent effort in improving the quality and respecting the very qualitative terroir of the estate.

Fourcas Dupré was classified until 2006 as “Cru Bourgeois Supérieur”. With the disappearance of this ranking after 2006, Ghislain and Patrice chose not to present their wine to the Cru Bourgeois Label, like many of the former top Cru Bourgeois Supérieurs chose to do.
Fourcas Dupré is one of the few Cru Bourgeois which is part of the Union des Grands Crus.

Rouge grenat dense aux reflets violets. Bouquet invitant qui évoque de la douceur avec des notes de raisins secs mais également de la fraîcheur au travers de notes de cassis. Caractère équilibré et friand en bouche. Le vin est bien soutenu par ses tannins et est légèrement crémeux. Il demande un peu de garde. Belle réussite. 2023-2036 89/100

The medium ruby-colored 2016 Château Fourcas Dupré offers pretty notes of blueberries, cherries, and flowers to go with a medium-bodied, balanced, rounded, impressively textured style on the palate. It's a terrific Listrac that has real depth.

The 2016 Fourcas-Dupre has a medium garnet-purple color and nose of redcurrants, kirsch and blueberries with hints of earth and bay leaves. The palate is medium-bodied, soft, fresh and juicy.

The 2016 Fourcas-Dupres has a very elegant bouquet without shortchanging on fruit. The aromatics here are packed with blackberry, raspberry and light cassis aromas, the oak nicely integrated and with a subtle estuarine note emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp, grainy tannin. There is plenty of fresh, energetic black fruit here laced with black olive and a pinch of brine, fanning out towards the satisfying, long finish. Here is a great Listrac hot on the heels of their great 2015 last year.

(55 Cabernet Sauvignon, 44 Merlot, 1 Petit Verdot)Bold and powerful with some raw edges and also some saltiness, this is a slightly pagan wine and yet it appeals in a rustic manner. Not bad, but you will have to wait five years for the tannins to subside. 16+

Bright, mid crimson. Some pepperiness and real drive on the nose. Not the most concentrated wine, with quite marked acidity as well as light tannins at the moment. Very sandy finish. Competent rather than thrilling.

A little lean and linear but with some pleasant berry and currant character, a medium body and a light finish.
