The fresh, elegant 2017 Château Fourcas Dupré is a charming Listrac that has rock-solid balance and classic notes of ripe raspberries, spring flowers, and sappy herbs. With sweet tannin and an already delicious style, it's ideal for drinking over the coming 5-7 years.

The 2017 Fourcas-Dupre is medium to deep garnet-purple in color with an earthy nose of truffles and damp soil over a core of blackberries and black currants. The palate is medium-bodied and just a tad lean in the middle with a grippy finish.
