Critics' Tasting Notes:
"The 2020 Fourcas-Dupre has a medium to deep garnet-purple color and notes of ripe black plums, blackberry preserves and blackcurrant pastilles with touches of ground cloves, wild sages and fragrant earth. The medium-bodied palate features bright, crunchy black and red berry flavors with a soft texture and bags of freshness, finishing long and invigorating. Nicely done!"
(90-92/100) points, Lisa Perrotti-Brown, WINE ADVOCATE
"First, firm and crisp, with a bit of a chewy texture to the fruits in the vibrant, medium-bodied palate, the wine already offers sweet, vibrant red fruits with a touch of savory, refreshing mint and cocoa in the finish."
91/100 points, Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider, March 2023
