La Dauphine Fronsac 2018
93 Points! The 2018 Château de la Dauphine was a knockout when I tasted it from barrel. Now in bottle, it has a very clean, precise bouquet of shimmering blackberry and wild strawberry aromas, underlying blood orange notes coming through with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, plenty of graphite-tinged black fruit and a very elegant yet long finish. Superb! - Neal Martin, Vinous Media
93 Points! A delicious wine that has been well handled comprising vibrant fruits with brambles and hedgerows keeping things on the right side of slick. A good job done here with the estate retaining biodynamics even through a tough vintage. Drinking Window 2022-2032 - Decanter
93 Points! Aromas of dried blueberries, currants, bitter chocolate, chalk and sweet tobacco. It’s medium-to full-bodied with compact, firm tannins that provide form and tension. Racy and energetic finish that goes on for minutes. Try after 2024. - James Suckling, jamessuckling.com
