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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn 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.\n\nThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFourcas 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFourcas Dupré is a well-regarded producer in Listrac-Médoc, one of the lesser-known but respected communes of Bordeaux’s Left Bank.
