Château la Vieille Cure Fronsac 2019

Fronsacs are often a little austere when just in bottle, as their limestone soils are showing maximum impact. Be patient though, as this will flesh out within a few years and provide luscious black cherry and damson fruits alongside the chocolate and tar notes. A yield of 42hl/ha. 70% new oak. First full year under new owner Jerome Pignard, who bought from the American team of Colin Ferenbach and Peter Sachs. Jean-Luc Thunevin consultant.
