CHÂTEAU FOURCAS BORIE Cru Bourgeois Listrac-Medoc 2016
My money is on the 2016 Château Fourcas-Borie being the wine of the vintage in Listrac, It’s rare to find a Listrac with this level of depth and richness. Smoking notes of blackcurrants, black cherries, and graphite all emerge from this medium-bodied effort that has terrific mid-palate concentration, ripe tannins, and a brilliant finish. Want to taste the best from Listrac? Buy this wine.
LIRAC La Dame Rousse Domaine de la Mordorée 2021
The full ripe-blackberry fruit on the full-bodied palate is underlined by healthy tannins, that put this firmly on the dry side and give it a classical style, in spite of the ample (15%) alcohol. Very interesting licorice and bark notes at the finish. And somehow all this has a certain refreshing quality. A cuvee of grenache and syrah. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. Drink or hold.
