Château Fourcas Dupré 2021

Punchy and confident on the palate, this shines brightly with generous strawberries and red cherries edged by raspberry leaf and touches of black chocolate and graphite. Tannins are fine and give gently gripping support to the overall texture as well as bringing an extra layer of pencil lead, salinity and bitterness to the fruit. An upfront and charming wine that is well presented with excellent clarity. Drinking window: 2024-2035. Score – 90. (Georgina Hindle, decanter.com, March 31, 2022)
