Tasting notes
The 2024 Château Fourcas Dupré is based on 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 46% Merlot, and 1% Petit Verdot, delivering ripe red and black fruits, spicy wood, and floral, sappy herb notes. Medium-bodied and focused on the palate, it hasa reasonable concentration and ripe tannins. It's a solid effort.

The 2024 Fourcas Dupré is laced with dark cherry, plum, mocha, cloves, licorice and leather. This bold, juicy Listrac is promising. It offers very good depth and fine balance.
The 2024 Fourcas Dupré has a little more fruit concentration than the Fourcas Hosten tasted alongside, yet it does miss some freshness and detail. This feels a bit pushed in the winery. The palate is chewy on the entry with firm tannins. It's peppery on the mid-palate, though short and missing flesh on the finish. The 2024 is so-so.
Forward, open, soft, and fruity, the cherries, and plums are already charming and easy to enjoy on release.
