LA VIEILLE CURE 2020 FRONSAC

JEB DUNNUCK 93 POINTS – “Always a winner, I can’t remember the last vintage of this cuvée that didn’t put a smile on my face. The 2020 Chateau La Vieille Cure has lots of up-front cassis and black cherry fruits to go with complex floral, lead pencil, and green tobacco-like aromas and flavors. Medium to full-bodied, seamless, and elegant, it has the vintage’s concentrated, pure style front and center. Best After 2023.”

JAMES SUCKLING 93 POINTS – “A pretty deep and broad-shouldered Fronsac with impressive intensity. Nose has lots of blackcurrants, dark cherries, some cocoa powder and a hint of cigar box. Full-bodied on the palate with dense yet creamy tannins that will take a few more years to integrate. Lengthy and pretty plush. An outstanding Fronsac. Drinkable now, but better from 2025.”
