Fourcas Dupre Listrac Médoc - Double Magnum 3L, 2017

Fourcas Dupré Listrac-Médoc 2017 in double magnum format is a classic Left Bank Bordeaux that offers excellent value and impressive cellaring potential in a generous 3L bottle. Sourced from Listrac-Médoc, one of the Médoc’s most characterful appellations, it reflects the structured, Cabernet-led style that has made Bordeaux a benchmark for age-worthy red wines.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this 2017 Bordeaux typically shows a deep ruby color with youthful purple reflections at the rim. The bouquet leans toward blackcurrant, blackberry, cedar, tobacco leaf, and a hint of graphite, with subtle earthy and spicy notes adding complexity. On the palate, it is medium- to full-bodied, with firm but polished tannins, fresh acidity, and a core of dark fruit framed by classic Médoc austerity. The wine’s structure suggests it will continue to evolve nicely with time in bottle, especially in magnum, where development is often slower and more graceful. With a few years of aging, expect more tobacco, dried herbs, leather, and forest-floor nuance to emerge, while the fruit becomes rounder and more integrated.

Production
Fourcas Dupré is produced in Listrac-Médoc, where gravel, clay, and limestone soils help give the wine its balance of structure and freshness. While detailed vineyard and vinification information is not provided here, wines from this part of Bordeaux are commonly harvested parcel by parcel and vinified to preserve varietal purity, ripe tannins, and the appellation’s signature sense of backbone.

Food & Serving
This is a natural match for roasted lamb, beef tenderloin, duck breast, or classic Bordeaux-style dishes such as entrecôte with shallot sauce. It also pairs well with mushroom-based dishes, hard cheeses, and slow-cooked meats. Serve at 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 1–2 hours if drinking young to soften the tannins and open the aromas.

Producer
Fourcas Dupré is a well-regarded producer in Listrac-Médoc, one of the lesser-known but respected communes of Bordeaux’s Left Bank. The estate is known for crafting traditional, age-worthy Médoc wines that combine structure, freshness, and regional character, helping to showcase the depth and quality that Listrac can offer beyond the more famous Bordeaux appellations.
