The 2022 Les Trois Croix offers a wonderful bouquet with blackberry and bilberry fruit scents, a delightful marine influence and great vigor. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins and plenty of crisp, pure black fruit notes, complemented by a dash of white pepper and allspice on the finish. This is a lovely Fronsac from one of its most consistent performers.
A juicy and serious Fronsac offering aromas of blackberries, sweet spices and hints of earth. It’s medium-bodied with fine, firm tannins. Vivid and finely textured, it shows a bright core of berries at the center. Agile and poised. Dense and persistent finish. Drink from 2027.
Flowers, cherries, licorice, and espresso blend to create a supple, fresh, creamy, rich wine with minerality, lush textures and ripe, polished fruits in the lengthy finish. Drink from 2025-2038.
